New AZ law - Welfare ends after 12 months

If they'd toss out all the illegal aliens collecting benefits there'd be money for poor CITIZENS.

Facing 1 Billion Deficit Arizona Sharply Limits Welfare - US News

may 18 2015
PHOENIX (AP) — Facing a $1 billion budget deficit, Arizona's Republican-led Legislature has reduced the lifetime limit for welfare recipients to the shortest window in the nation.

Low-income families on welfare will now have their benefits cut off after just 12 months.

As a result, the Arizona Department of Economic Security will drop at least 1,600 families — including more than 2,700 children — from the state's federally funded welfare program on July 1, 2016.

The cuts of at least $4 million reflect a prevailing mood among the lawmakers in control in Arizona that welfare, Medicaid and other public assistance programs are crutches that keep the poor from getting back on their feet and achieving their potential

Most states impose a five-year limit on welfare benefits. Thirteen states limit it to two years or less, and Texas has a tiered time limit that can be as little as 12 months but allows children to continue to receive funding even after the parents have been cut, welfare policy analyst Liz Schott said.

A step in the right direction. And yeah, toss out the illegals and there would be plenty of money to help poor Americans.

Illegal aliens collecting welfare comes as a result of the false documentation industry, which would have been shut down long ago if not for continuous pro-immigration presidents, going all the way back more than 20 years. It also is a result of the anchor baby racket, which is based on the FALSE premise that anyone born in the USA is automatically a US citizen.

This wrong notion comes from the 14th amendment of the Constitution, but the author of that amendment never intended it to be interpreted that way, He, Jacob Howard, in 1866, when the amendment was created said this >> "[The 14th amendment] will not, of course, include persons born in the United States who are foreigners, aliens, who belong to the families of ambassadors or foreign ministers accredited to the government of the United States, but will include every other class of person."[2]

The Legislature also passed a law seeking to force anyone getting Medicaid to have a job, and cutting off those benefits after five years. And Republican leaders are suing their own state to block a centerpiece of President Barack Obama's health care law, which expanded Medicaid to give more poor people health insurance.

If they prevail, more than 300,000 poor Arizonans could lose their coverage.

Just more evidence that Republicans hate poor people - even if it doesn't cost the state anything.

Illegal aliens collect far more benefits than SNAP and susidized housing. Their kids are allowed to attend our schools and that is $15,000 per kid per year. That's due to the supreme court decision in plyler v doe that mandated the taxpayers provide free k-12 for people that aren't even allowed to be here!!! Another case of judges writing laws even though the constitution says they can't.

Not as much as you liberals hate working middle class americans.

Of course it costs the state. It costs them a fortune. And one extremely important component of this issue isn't even mentioned in the US News article. That is the massive issue of immigration. All throughout America, immigrants are receiving more welfare benefits than native-born Americans. This comes most often as a result of the anchor baby racket, and the abomination known as birth tourism, in which foreign women come into the Us illegally in the 8th month of pregnancy, give birth on the American side of the border, and consequently help themselves to a lifetime of benefits, at US taxpayer expense.

Republicans ? When have we heard Democrats recite the issues I just did here ?

So we should force the taxpayers to provide them with an income so they won't commit crimes? Sounds like extortion.

What do you think the purpose of welfare is, dope?

 

[ShootSpeeders]

Poor people need to stop having kids. With the ready availability of birth control and abortion there is no excuse for it

Well, at least you admit you're ok with submitting to extortion.

To provide temporary help for the poor. But liberals turn it into a career to get the poor to vote for them. Democrats are the welfare party and they want more people on welfare.

Mexicans love having babies, they're not interested in birth control.

Please get the GOP to run on that platform. TIA.

Reading the article it appears not all welfare is being cut after 12 months, just the TANF program. They'll still get their free housing and EBT cards forever.

Maybe they should. Working americans are sick of seeing their tax dollars go to welfare queen mexicans with 8 kids.
