Bill Delahunt: “The gentleman has referenced several times that, if the States do not comply with the mandates that this bill provides…”

“The gentleman has referenced several times that, if the States do not comply with the mandates that this bill provides, the mandates that many of us disagree with based on very sound public policy, because as indicated, we are hurt time and time and time again that these initiatives, these mandates simply do not work. But what happens to that $1.5 billion? For those States that make the decision that they want to chart their own course? I would ask the gentleman if he knows what happens to that $1.5 billion? Is it then spread among the very few States that do comply?”
