On the recordJune 12, 2003
I want Members to know she has a 2-year-old child. She is a specialist. She will make less than $18,000 this year. She will be denied the child tax credit under the bill that just passed. These young people who were willing not only to serve their country, but to give their lives and their limbs. I want Members to know she was up there in Rayburn with a cast on her left leg. She was brought in with a wheelchair. She is proud, and did not even realize what she did for her country. But, Mr. Speaker, if we do not take care of the Shoshana Johnsons and take care of the very wealthy, we are abdicating our values under a democracy. I ask Members to please let us accept the Senate proposal for the child tax credit.
