Rep. Jordan Uses Paul the Apostle to Explain Value of Work Requirements for Benefits"Saint Paul Was a tentmaker. He was doing two jobs: he was doing his missionary work, and he was also doing manual, building tents. He was doing work. It is good for people." -Representative Jim Jordan

"Saint Paul Was a tentmaker," Rep. Jordan noted: "He was doing two jobs: he was doing his missionary work, and he was also doing manual, building tents. He was doing work. It is good for people."

So, I strongly support this concept of work requirements," Jordan explained: "It is where you learn to interact with people. "It is where you learn business skills. "It is where you just learn to work hard. "It is so critical. We've got to get it back into our culture and I think this is the right way."
