You can use the argument it is there because there are medical needs for the people who are disabled and you need the cash to pay for that. except for the fact that if you qualify for SSI. you also qualify for Medicaid. which. of course. pays your medical benefits. So. in a lot of cases SSI is a nice chunk of change. And it is. in fact. a $458amonth Federal benefit per child. Now. we have reforms in this bill that address three areas of SSI: children on SSI. drug addicts and alcoholics. and immigrants. aliens. sponsored aliens in particular. Let me first talk. if I can. about children. It is a controversial area to talk about. one that a lot of folks do not like to address.
