WASHINGTON -- U.S. President George W. Bush is proposing a tough new set of work requirements for welfare recipients and $300 million to promote marriage, including $135 million for abstinence education.

The plan will require that 70 per cent of all welfare recipients in a state be working by 2007 even though the typical state currently has only 30 per cent of its caseload working,

In addition:

* recipients will be required to spend 40 hours a week working,

* two of those days may be used for education or training,
