I will simply say once again that here we go through this litany. Does the Senator really believe. I say to my friend from Illinois. that her constituents in Illinois believe that if somebody comes into the United States on a visa to go to our schools. they should not pay their own way? Should the Federal Government or local government pay for that? I think not. I think for far too long the United States of America has been looked at as the sacred cow. if you will. with all of the money in the world. with our streets paved with gold. and if they get here legally. Illegally. or by visa. coming here temporarily. they get to take their turn at the trough. The trough is still there. but the food and water that was in the troughthe milk of Federal fundsis drying up. And very definitely.
