Welfare Warriors is a grassroots movement of single mothers on welfare who are combatting the current attack on the poor which is better known as the "welfare reform bill". Through lobbying, public speaking and direct action the women dispel the negative myths about welfare mothers, and assert that "an attack on poor women is an attack on all women". Today's efforts to dismantle the welfare state are put into an historical perspective through women's personal experiences, and comments of social critics and advocates of welfare.
