Welfare
 

"(Under current laws, parents on welfare have a five-year lifetime limit to receive benefits. Next year, the first wave of welfare recipients will hit that time limit. The Legislature is deciding which parents, if any, should be allowed to stay on welfare longer). Should the state extend the time limit for welfare recipients with serious health problems or disabilities, or for parents who care for family members with those problems?"
