Under this legislations expansion of the food stamp entitlement. 250.000 new people will be added to the food stamp rolls. In my last campaign. I talked about the fact that the President had committed to undermining the welfare reform bill that was passed several years ago. These provisions have proven that statement to be true. This bill expands from 5 to 7 years the amount of time noncitizens can draw food stamps. It is an expansion of that policy. and it is the kind of expansion I think is not justified. Will we next year come back for 10 years?
