TALLAHASSEE Fla.-- A bill being considered would mean some big changes for Florida couples getting a divorce.
Measures to end permanent alimony are generating emotional arguments in legislative committee hearings.
The Alimony Reform bill is now ready for a vote on the house floor.
Supporters of the Alimony bill say it would provide consistency and end injustices to a spouse ordered to pay alimony for life.
Opponents think the changes would be unfair to women, and in particular, stay at home mothers.
