Republican Mitt Romney is renewing his criticism of President Barack Obama'swelfare policy, accusing him in a new ad of "gutting welfare reform." The ad says Romney would "put work back in welfare."
Romney says Obama lifted a provision that required people receiving welfare to work. Independent fact checkers have found the premise of the ad to be false.
Last month, Obama moved to allow states to seek waivers from some welfare rules. To get a waiver, states must show their plans would move at least 20 percent more people to work.
