Mr. Speaker, the gentleman has it exactly backwards. The proposal that we have put forward provides food stamps for children, the disabled, and refugees. The proposal that the gentleman refers to, section 452, only refers to citizens who have been in the country for more than 5 years. So if you are a child who has been here less than 5 years, you are not covered by the proposal of the gentleman from California (Mr. Baca).
