I think it is a very important bill. and I very much want to support it. but I have to say. how can we be proud to vote for a bill that would take a blind. elderly woman with no other means of support and throw her out on the street? How can we be proud of a bill that takes children and puts them out on the street? Today. there are an estimated z tllion legal Immigrant children i. nis country. Some of them will be harmed if the FeinsteinBoxer amendr. -nt is not adopted. Ou . those 4 ilion legal immigrant ldren. ab .t 1.5 million live in thl Late of Ca!: rrnia. How can we stand here and say 1 ve care about children and yet ie same breath vote for a bill that ld cause harm to sc .res of legal ixnmlgrant children? It Is hard for m to comprehend that.
