They are here illegally. We are now going to pass a law that is going to allow them to stay here. that will give them free medical care. that will give free education for their children. and allow them to utilize all the services this Nation has put together through the taxpayers of America. Then we are prepared. under this bill. to give these illegal aliens. prior to the time they become a citizen when we change the rules. $40 billion of the taxpayers money. What offsets do we have? What efforts or plans have been made to pay for that over the next 10 years? Let me ask my colleagues: If we change the rules and we say we are not going to enforce the criminal laws against you or the immigration laws. why cant we say: you can stay here and. for the overwhelming majority under this bill. you are on a path to citizenship. but you do not get to claim the tax credit? This is a transfer payment. It is classified as an outlay by the U.S.
