Education. Health and Human Services. and Related Agencies appropriations bill. We provided these funds under the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 [IRCA] to offset costs incurred by State and local governments in providing public assistance. education. and health services to aliens legalized under that law. To put it bluntly. when Congress raids these funds. it reneges on its contract with the States. and it jeopardizes the legalization process for many of the millions of undocumented workers we originally intended to help. This is not fair dealing with the States. This is not humane treatment of the participants in the amnesty program.
