My first amendment would have applied payasyougo spending rules to this bill that CBO has said will have a net cost of $2.4 billion over the next 5 years. Remember Democrats promise to use PAYGO rules for everything. instead. theyre picking and choosing when to do so. At home we call that breaking a rule and breaking a promise. The second amendment. Mr. Speaker. is clearly a substantive one. It would have prevented. as the gentlelady from Florida said. prevented illegal immigrants from receiving assistance under the section 8 program by providing all adults to provide secure identification before receiving assistance. Its the kind of commonsense amendment that the Financial Services Committee has applied before. It has also been accepted by the full House on other legislation.
