Let me say a word about the piece that I worked most on. the human resource piece. I supported the Welfare Reform Act. People on welfare should move from welfare to work. But when the President signed the bill he pointed out several inequities. One related to legal immigrants. He promised to work to provide benefits to elderly and disabled legal immigrants who should not have been penalized in the first place. I joined in that promise. Today we are keeping that promise.
