Welfare Recipients Just Got SLAMMED With Some Terrible News [VIDEO] According to recent reports, Arizonas Republican-led Legislature just reduced the lifetime limit for welfare recipients. If the bill passes, they will have the shortest window in the nation, with families on welfare being cut off after just 12 months. The Arizona Department of Economic Security will drop by at least 1,600 families by July of next year. The $4 million cut are indicative of a changing attitude among lawmakers, who are taking a close look at the $1 billion budget deficit. As a society, we are encouraging people at times to make poor decisions and then we reward them, Republican Sen. Kelli Ward told reporters. Of course, some welfare recipients and liberals are staunchly against the plan. Especially when most states have a five-year limit. What do you think? Do you support the cut?
