Mr. Speaker, there is one point that I wish to emphasize very strongly here, and it is that this legislation does not change the apportionment of funds to the States. Therefore, no State will either gain funds or lose funds as a result of this legislation. Mr. Speaker, this simply gives those States affected, California most significantly, for example, the flexibility of spending its funds as it decides are most necessary. Because it does not affect apportionment to other States, and because it does give increased flexibility, I strongly support this legislation.
