To say that they are not going to cut these child nutrition programs is the big lie, ladies and gentlemen, because if you make a block grant, you take last year's figure which may be higher than the year before's but say, ``We are not going to raise it in the future, we are just going to let the States spend it,'' you are cutting it. If you do not take into account economic downturns, if you do not take into account what happens in community after community across this country which may be different than what is happening here, and then have the audacity to blame the Democrat support on our connections with Federal bureaucrats, that is just too absurd for words. Ladies and gentlemen, we need to continue to support our children.
