So. I am not for the food stamp provision. but I am not asking my colleagues to strike it out. I am asking my colleagues to ask the conference to reconvene and to remove the prospective provision which says that anyone coming in the future can qualify as a refugee and get 7 years of food stamps. I believe that we are. through this provision. taking a step to go back to the days. which we have recently put behind us. where we were asking people to come to America. not with their sleeves rolled up ready to go to work. but with their hand held out ready to go on welfare. This is a little issue.
