So. if they want to hold on to much of the status quo and hold on to the Federal grip on welfare. they will have the opportunity to do so and put it forth in a Democrat process. and that is absolutely amazing. and it is wonderful that this is happening. particularly in these days where we see that there are so many gotchas and oneupmanships going on in this House. So I want to compliment all of the people. to very briefly that one might say. "Well. if the CastleTanner bill and the Republican bill both block grant welfare. then what is the difference?" Well. there are two. really two. basic differences that we are going to be asked to consider ourselves and to decide between. Those of us who are going to oppose the CastleTanner bill. those of us on the Republican side who oppose that particular bill. we do not believe that American taxpayers should simply still be required to shell out their money to pay welfare to noncitizens. This is a growing. growing area where the alien population on welfare is growing at a much higher percent than the U.S. citizen group. So we feel that CastleTanner Is going the wrong way on that.
