And in fact. just the cost of the welfare. Mr. Speaker. paying for the children of illegals have gotten so big that even a great moderate like Arnold Schwarzenegger. our terminator. or what we call "governorator" has recognized that he wants to be able to provide health care to these children. he wants to be able to take care of the costs. but even he is proposing that we now have to cut off welfare payment to the children of illegal aliens at 5 years. not because he wants to cut it off. but because even the wealthiest State in this Union. California. can no longer afford to pay the benefits to illegal aliens that have been going on for so long. It has gotten that far. And I think anybody would recognize that Arnold Schwarzenegger is not exactly antiimmigrant. He is probably the flagship and the banner boy for the successful immigrant story. But even he has looked at the bottom line and said there is a place where you have got to be able to say enough is enough. How much are you going to take from the lawabiding citizens and the children of lawabiding citizens and shift it over and give it to people who have broken our laws?
