Mr. Speaker. in 93 days a harsh new welfare law will wipe out assistance to legal immigrants. Yesterday I told my colleagues about one such Immigrant from my district. Today let. me tell my colleagues about another. Her name is Adela. If my colleagues voted for welfare reform so they could teach people about the importance of hard work. they did not have to bother in Adelas case. After coming to the United States. Adela worked for 8 years in a factory on Chicagos northwest side. In fact. she worked well past the age at which most Americans would have called it quits and would have retired.
