Let me just mention some of the specifics that are in this bill for why the Members should support it: First. the Medicare. we are providing for 10year solvency. additional solvency of the Medicare system. improving benefits to our seniors in preventive health care and access to emergency care. Our academic centers will be getting some badly needed relief to make sure that we have excellence in health care in this country. Twentyfour billion dollars to expand health care for our children. This bill acknowledges the special needs of Amtrak and capital involvement. and the welfare bill from last year has changed to provide more resources for welfare to work and to remove some of the punitive aspects against legal immigrants. It is a good bill. I urge my colleagues to support it.
