What happened is. last night we passed this rule. about 11:30. This amendment that the chairman of the Committee on Rules has talked about said. I want to make it perfectly clear what his amendment will do that he will offer. it will take away the eligibility of food stamps for legal immigrants. It exposes whole sections. because what it does with sections 501 and 502. these are the provisions that pay for crop insurance programs. the sections that the rule allows to be taken out. the sections that the rule allows to be taken out of the bill are the provisions which will allow legal immigrants to receive food stamps. This amendment takes away eligibility of food stamps. because what it does is it exposes the food stamp sections to the scope. And what will happen is somebody from the gentlemans side will raise a point of order.
