If you need it after a year, you're kaput.

PHOENIX — Confronting 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 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 when the budget year begins in July.

Is their goal to make self-deportation a reality?
I know I would self-deport from Arizona at this rate.

That's the general idea, yes.

Joe might be on the new Southern Border.
