“I have heard some speeches on the floor of the Senate and this ranks right up there. I do not know how you say--when the leader here is negotiating, in good faith, to in fact add more money into the child care fund--that somehow or another we are denying the fact that we need child care, and have Members on the other side who insist on having their name sketched next to the child care money, to throw out an agreement to do just that. I think that is not cooperation by any stretch of the imagination. To also suggest that somehow we provide day care for workers here in the U.S. Congress and that we are not willing to do so in the welfare bill--maybe the Senator does not know it, but the people who have children in day care pay for that with the hard-earned dollars that they work for.”
