Speech #1100111887

This bill will also increase taxes on tobacco. the revenue of which will not be set aside for this program. but rather will be put into the Treasury for general use. In addition. this bill allows over 10 percent of the funds allotted to provide health care for lowincome children to be used by adults. therefore limiting the amount of money available for needy children. Finally. this legislation fails to ensure that illegal aliens. both children and adults. will not take money away from lowincome American children. CBO estimates that under current documentation requirements. 3.7 billion taxpayer dollars will be spent on providing health care to people who have broken our laws and come to our country illegally. The flaws in this legislation are evident and. in my opinion. correctable.
