Speech #1100108315

We have heard our colleagues across the aisle saying that it has to do with supporting health care for disadvantaged children. But. unfortunately. that is not exactly what this bill does. We are all for health care for children of the working poor. but some of the things that this bill is about: It would move a very successful block grant program to an entitlement. It would provide free taxpayerfunded health care to Illegal immigrants. It would add more adults than what our own IRS calls highincome families to the government health care rolls. It would remove people from private insurance and put them over on the government rolls.
