Mr. ALTMIRE. are new here. so we are figuring this out as we go along. But there is not a bill that comes before this House that somebody on the other side doesnt scream "illegal immigrants" over. Right? That is just sort of the buzz word that accompanies every bill here. We had a Native American housing bill before this House a couple of weeks back. and somebody on the other side filed an amendment to make sure that no Native American housing benefits went to illegal immigrants. Now. I know that we run our programs pretty inefficiently in this country. but you have to really mismanage the Native American housing program in order to give some of the housing to illegal immigrants. So what they are saying on the other side is that this childrens health care bill is going to go to illegal immigrants. Not true. Find me anywhere in that bill that allows for that.
