They were ready to say to an elderly man who put his loving wife of 60 years Into a nursing home that he could not keep his house. he could not keep his car. and he could not keep his $1.200 a month. the Government was going to go after it before his wife could get help in that nursing home. Family values? I do not think so. So I am going to walk into that Budget Committee this afternoon. and I am going to talk about the values that I have as a daughter of an immigrant mother who never went to high school but who is as smart as anyone in this Chamber. I am going to talk about the sadness I feel that America is turning its back on who we are and what made us great as a nation. But I am also going to fight.
