 House Memorial 25 (HM 25) relates to poverty and the “cliff effect,” which occurs when a household loses its eligibility for public assistance once its income rises above the threshold set by federal poverty guidelines. 

 The memorial urges Congress and the federal government to create policies and reduce the cliff effect.

Copies of the memorial are to be sent to the U.S. President and members of Congress.
