Answer:

b) replacing Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC) with Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF)

Step-by-step explanation:

This welfare-reform plan responded to criticisms that welfare encouraged poor people to remain unemployed in order to keep receiving aid. It replaced the traditional antipoverty program for poor families (Aid to Families with Dependent Children, or AFDC) with a new program called Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF).
