I continue to have concerns about some of the provisions in this bill. We must be certain that both the Federal and State governments live up to their responsibilities to protect children who may lose assistance through no fault of their own. We must make sure that legal immigrants. who have paid taxes and in some cases defended the United States In our armed services. are not abandoned In their hour of need. And it is not enough to move people off of welfare--we must move them into jobs that make them selfsufficient and contributing members of society. This bill supports the American values of work and personal responsibility.
