Under what logic are they being denied benefits? I heard someone raise the notion of fraud and abuse but is there a demonstrated record of such a problem? Are legal noncitizens any different in this regard than citizens? The policy being advanced in this GOP measure is inappropriate and while I commend this amendment to my colleagues. the GOP bill is not much changed by this amendment. We do not even have an up or down vote on the subject of benefits for noncitizens due to the restrictive Republican rule and these piecemeal amendments will not remedy this punitive measure. Mr. Chairman.
