retarded and mentally ill; and State funding to "hold
harmless" many other vital human services programs from the
federal funding cutbacks. Few if any states have made such
a strong, sustained effort to mitigate the plight of the
poor and vulnerable in the face of federal retrenchment.
I commend the sponsors and supporters of both Senate
Bill 926 and House Bill 1596 for recognizing the need for
the State to assist low-income pregnant women, particularly
during the first 5 months of pregnancy when the Omnibus
Reconciliation Act leaves them without any cash assistance.
With the signing of House Bill 1596, we will have assumed
responsibility to help pregnant women to better meet their
essential needs during this critical pre-natal period.
