    Default New Rules For Substance Abusers On Welfare In El Paso County

    Well let's see if this holds up. Great idea, but they will cry racism or some other BS.

    People who are on welfare in El Paso County and abuse alcohol or drugs need to be ready to get treatment.

    Beginning Monday welfare recipients suspected of substance abuse will have to comply with a treatment plan to keep benefits.
    People in the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families program will be screened by an addiction counselor if there’s a reasonable suspicion they’re not following the rules. If treatment is refused they will no longer be eligible for welfare.
    An American Civil Liberties Union representative says the policy amounts to an invasion of privacy.

    I LOVE THIS POLICY!!!

    It's about damned time.
    No longer accepting new Trust clients. Pretty much out of the law business completely.

    About damn time! I do see the race card comming out though so it will probably be short lived.

    This should already be on the books nation wide. If you wanna be a low life peice of shit no government money for you. Welfare should only be for a specific amount of time also , to help you get back on your feet.
    Don't be stupid!!!!!

    Wanna' live on our money? Then you get to live by our rules. Don't like it? Then become a self-sufficient contributing member of society.

    We discussed this today in my Larimer county District Attorney community committee meeting today. They hope it holds up but, it was tried in FL recently and the FLSC said it was unconstitutional according to DA Riedel.
