The bill also includes the largest investment In our Nations history since Medicaid. $24 billion. This funding will help States provide health coverage for millions of uninsured children. and I really hope I can believe what I heard. that this coverage will be as good as State and Federal workers have. Furthermore. the legislation restores Federal aid for thousands of legal immigrants and provides $3 billion to help people make that transition so important from welfare to work. These and other changes make good on the pledge that many of us made. led by the President. to fix the problems in the recent welfare bill. and I thank the gentleman from Florida for his hard work in this area. And. finally. the bill will enhance Medicares coverage for preventive care including. annual mammograms.
