Alimony Reform Movement

The Alimony Reform Movement seeks to change how spousal support, or alimony, is determined and awarded during and after divorce. Advocates argue that current laws can be outdated and unfair, often leading to indefinite payments that create financial dependency. The movement promotes guidelines for fairer, more predictable alimony arrangements, such as fixed durations and clear formulas based on income and needs. It aims to modernize laws to reflect contemporary societal norms and economic realities, ensuring both parties are treated equitably while encouraging independence and self-sufficiency after a marriage ends.
