It is so unfair to say there were other things more important in the bill than helping struggling families. Before my friend from Nevada came in, I was talking about an article in the New York Times about working families, about the income level we are talking about, and how one family had been saving $5 in an envelope every week so that their son might have a party at his holy communion for all his friends and family. And now they can't save that $5 anymore because taxes are going up and the costs are going up. To say that family is not struggling is amazing.
