44-206 PERSONS WHO MUST BE EXCLUDED FROM

(b) Any member of a federally eligible AU, other than the caretaker relative who is the natural or adoptive parent, who is participating in a strike, as defined in Section 41-703.22, on the last day of the month, shall be ineligible in that month. The person remains ineligible for any subsequent month(s) in which the county can reasonably estimate that such person's participation in the strike will continue through the last day of the month. If aid to such person is discontinued, reduced, or denied because the county estimated that he or she would be participating in a strike on the last day of the month and the applicant or recipient later reports that such person's participation in the strike ceased before the last day of the month, the county shall rescind the discontinuance, reduction, or denial and issue the correct grant.

.2 The entire family is ineligible for aid payments when:

.21 A federally eligible caretaker relative who is the natural or adoptive parent living in the home of the aided child is participating in a strike as defined in Section 41-703.22, on the last day of the month. The AU remains ineligible for any subsequent month(s) in which the county can reasonably estimate that participation in the strike will continue through the last day of the month. If aid is discontinued, reduced, or denied because the county estimated that the caretaker relative parent would be participating in a strike through the last day of the month and the applicant or recipient later reports that participating in the strike ceased before the last day of the month, the county shall rescind the discontinuance, reduction, or denial and issue the correct grant.
