This legislation builds on those efforts. and I am proud to support it. Even if it is not needed as a payfor. this good government provision merits passage on its own. This legislation is supported by a wide range of faithbased and other community groups. such as the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society. Lutheran Social Services and Catholic Charities. I would also like to recognize the efforts of my Ways and Means colleague. Representative PHIL ENGLISH of Pennsylvania. who has worked diligently to extend SSI benefits to this vulnerable immigrant group. including by introducing legislation to do so. I urge all Members to join me in supporting this legislation today. I reserve the balance of my time.
