They were killed and slaughtered because another group felt that the region in which they lived needed to be cleansed. I mention this because. the provisions in this bill bring to mind the tragedy in Bosnia. The motivation behind these provisions which deny Medicaid. social services. and welfare fur assistance to legal immigrants. children. and the disabled reeks of all sorts of machinations. I am concerned that the Republican majority feels that this Nation needa to be cleansed of those who do not speak Eoglish as their native language. those who are poor. those who are disabled. those who are sick. and those who dare to ask for a helping hand. whatever the reason might be. Mr.
