Millions of illegals covered under Obama ...

Millions of illegals covered under Obama healthcare

Chad Groening - OneNewsNow - 7/29/2009 5:40:00

The ranking Republican on the House Subcommittee on Immigration says Democrats have refused to pass an amendment that would prevent illegal aliens from being covered in the Obama healthcare plan.

Democrats recently defeated a Republican-backed amendment offered by Rep. Dean Heller (R-Nevada) that would have prevented illegal immigrants from receiving government-subsidized health care under the proposed plan backed by House Democrats and President Obama.

Congressman Steve King (R-Iowa), the ranking member on the House Immigration Subcommittee, finds it outrageous that Democrats want to force hardworking Americans to foot the healthcare bill for those who are in the country illegally.

Steve King "The Democrats will not even allow an amendment to be debated on the subject matter. They have shut down the debate process here, and they have pushed any discussion -- however minimal it is -- up to the secret room up in the Rules Committee. They're not going to debate it," he points out. "They are determined to fund health insurance and health care for illegals -- and the number turns out to be 5.6 million that would be insured under this bill. [Those are] Congressional Budget Office numbers."

King suspects the actual number will be double that estimate or more.

 

Question:

I Posted a Page from the "White House" which was supposed to be an "Explanation" of the "Obummer Health Care Plan" but really didn't say anything about this which I brought up pointing out this "Problem". So Why do Illegal Aliens get better Treatment & Any coverage while We Pay for it???

Groups like LaRaza and MALDEF pour millions of dollars into the Congressional 'coffers' every year to get what they want. They've come up dry so far on amnesty for the illegals so now they're targeting health care. As if the illegals aren't already being taken care of. Just look at what it's done to CA's emergency rooms and hospitals. And Arnie can't seem to figure out what's wrong with his state!

If you don't want illegals benefiting by the health care reform bill be sure and let your senators know it. I communicate with my senators (and representatives) on a regular basis. I let them know what legislation I support and what I don't. We need to remind our elected officials that 'We the People' (we being the legal citizens of this country) voted them into office and we can damn sure vote them out!

BREAKING NEWS KING OBAMA SAYS"WAR ON TERROR IS OVER"
**************************************************

White House: 'War on terrorism' is over

It's official. The U.S. is no longer engaged in a "war on terrorism." Neither is it fighting "jihadists" or in a "global war." 

King Obama's top homeland security and counterterrorism official took all three terms off the table of acceptable words inside the White House during a speech Thursday at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, a Washington think tank.

"The President does not describe this as a 'war on terrorism,'" said John Brennan, head of the White House homeland security office, who outlined a "new way of seeing" the fight against terrorism.

WE ALL AGREE REFORM IS NEEDED WOULD YOU BE IN FAVOR OF THIS REFORM TO HEALTH CARE

Making Health Care More Affordable for All Americans:
More Americans will gain access to quality health care once its costs are brought under control.  The first step in lowering health care costs is to eliminate the unnecessary over-spending in our current system

To help those aged 55 to 64, the plan increases support for pre- and early-retirees with low- and modest-incomes.

states to create a Universal Access Program by establishing and/or reforming existing programs to guarantee all Americans, regardless of pre-existing conditions or past illnesses, have access to affordable coverage.
allow dependents to remain on their parents' health policies up to the age of 25. The number of uninsured Americans could be reduced by up to 7 million.

Mat. 6:33 "Seek Ye First the Kingdom of God and All these things Shall Be Added to You!!!

G.G. those are some good things that I think we can agree on, but if we truly limit our health care to Americans, that would drop another 50+ Million Illegal Aliens as well. That would be a BIG step in helping the especially hard hit Border States. I didn't realize it until doing some research the other day, but our "Meds" are so "High" because the Pharmaceutical companies actually "Give them Away for Free or almost Free" to third world countries. I can see that because it can also help Us stop the spread of disease, but I started to ask myself, when was the last time these same countries came here & helped Us??? And as I said before, I kinda "Live in the Border War Zone" so I know they can use the "Treatment", but we need to not "Rush" into it until we can come up with some way of "Paying" for it. I personally think that as Obummer wants to get the "World Envolved", there should be an "International Medical Account" set up to assure the "Third World Countries" have "Coverage" because "We the People" can't possibly bear this Burden even if Everyone here wanted to. And in "Reality", I have always been under the impression, that is Exactly what the "U.N." was all about, what happened there??? Instead of Destroying Everything we already have, we should be setting up the Rest of the World to Emulate what appears to be the Only System that is working, OURS!!! Wadda ya think???   John

The artist is the record keeper of present time and keeper of timeless culture ~ Yaroslaw Rozputnyak

That is a downright lie.

Here's the key provision that says illegal immigrants are NOT covered in the plan.

SEC. 246. NO FEDERAL PAYMENT FOR UNDOCUMENTED ALIENS. Nothing in this subtitle shall allow Federal payments for affordability credits on behalf of individuals who are not lawfully present in the United States.

Here's a link to the House bill. It's on page 143. I found it quickly by doing a "find search" in the document for the word "alien."
