However. children with disabilities who do not meet this personal care assistance test receive 75 percent of the SSI benefit amount. This system could result in a large majority of disabled children having their benefits reduced--children with disabilities such as cerebral palsy. Down syndrome. muscular dystrophy. cystic fibrosis. and AIDS. The Republican plan would also deny most Federal. State. and local benefits--including school lunchto illegal aliens and would deny SSI and food stamps to legal aliens until they become citizens. That plainly is an unfunded mandate on the States. The Republic budget fails to provide adequate resources for work programs and child care which are critical to effectuate a transition from welfare to work.
