I must come out against the repeal of this act. While it provides for more government than I would like, it does make it easier for women to choose to take a pregnancy to term. Also, the repeal of this act would be a disater for those who are currently utilizing the benefits granted here-in. I must support the Education and Care for Children in Poverty Act and encourage all of my fellow Senators to do the same.
Couldn't you reintroduce a constitutional version of your Unwed and Teenage Mothers Protection Bill instead to handle your first concern?*
And perhaps a phased-out process of reducing benefits instead of an abrupt halt would be better?
*Hey, if the UaTM Bill was unconstitutional, why would this bill still be constitutional? Just wondering...
