                 GOP TAX SCAM HURTS WOMEN AND FAMILIES

  (Ms. CLARK of Massachusetts asked and was given permission to address 
the House for 1 minute.)
  Ms. CLARK of Massachusetts. Mr. Speaker, I recently heard from a mom 
in Massachusetts. I will call her Rachel.
  Rachel's son was born 3 months early and then spent 2 years in the 
hospital. He is finally home, but he needs a ventilator and a feeding 
tube. Still, his mom says he is the happiest little 3-year-old in town.
  They have been through a lot, but they are able to get by--unless 
this Republican budget becomes law.
  Medicaid pays for the daily care this little boy needs to survive. 
Rachel wrote: ``We are terrified about what losing Medicaid support 
would mean for our family.''
  Moms have enough to deal with. Let's leave their healthcare alone.
