In Milwaukee. a full 50 percent of those people who are using these facilities for food are children. This is a disgrace. We have also been withholding food stamp eligibility for hard working legal immigrants. I have proposed legislation. "The Fairness for Legal Immigrants Act" to rectify this unfair treatment. These unspent dollars could be going to correct this injustice. rather than offsetting a bill that does not require offsets and is only 10 percent offset. anyway. Rather than revoking funds that should be spent on providing food to Americas working poor. we should be focusing on making certain that all children and families who are eligible and require food assistance have access to what they are entitled to.
