The bill is aimed at assisting communities which otherwise could not obtain the kinds of health services described in the bill. The real inequity in health is the fact that while some communities are rich in health servicesothers cannot even obtain basic care because decent services are not available. The community health centers and migrant health centers programs. in fact. are aimed at Americans who might otherwise be unable to secure decent health care at all. Unfortunately. in recent years shortages of funds have prevented the startup of enough migrant and community health centers to serve all of the populations in our Nation who urgently need such services. However. it makes no sense whatever to eliminate the centers we have. or cut them back substantially. just because we are not at this point ready to assist everyone who nbeds it. It makes even less sense to insist that the mental health centers program is inequitable and should be phased out.
