Speech #1100134805

Madam President. I rise to outline my reasons for supporting the Senate Finance Committee stimulus package. I have reviewed various proposals carefully. Clearly. the Housepassed package is simply unacceptable. I predict that the House would not pass that bill again now that its flaws have been revealed. By denying rebates to Social Security recipients and veterans. yet giving it to illegal immigrants. the House has produced something most Americans would reject. I understand that in the rush to produce the package. the House may not have completely vetted each and every provision. So when I say it is simply unacceptable.
