But I will join my bipartisan colleagues. 72 percent of the American public who support it. twothirds of the Senate. the majority of the House. We will stand for the children. And in particular. as I come from the State of Texas. this is a bill that we need. This bill will provide and is capped at 300 percent of poverty. This bill is standard law. We will cover legal immigrants. and the law already indicates that those who are undocumented will not be covered. In my own particular community of Harris County. we started in September of 2006 being able to do 56.000. This is a county of 4 million people. and now in the metroplex we are up to 62.000.
