Vote Data for HR3734 (104th Congress)


Date: July 23, 1996

Subject: Budget Reconciliation

Description: Passage of the bill to save about $56.3 billion through fiscal 2002, mostly by cutting aid to legal immigrants and scaling back food stamp benefits. The bill would end the federal guarantee of welfare benefits, give states broad discretion over their own programs through block grants, require welfare recipients to work within two years of getting benefits and generally limit recipients to five years of benefits. The bill would also make it harder for disabled children to qualify for Supplemental Security Income, restrict food stamp benefits and deny most legal aliens Supplemental Security Income, food stamps and, at the option of a state, Medicaid benefits.

Result: Bill Passed, 74-24
