Paying for Illegal Alien Healthcare

The Biden/Harris administration issued new regulations prohibiting states from kicking illegals off of Medicaid.

Former Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal is sounding the alarm about one of Kamala Harris’s major campaign promises, which is also a major priority of the left — socialized medicine. Or as they call it, “Medicare For All.”
 
Harris strongly supported Medicare For All in her first presidential campaign. She also co-sponsored Bernie Sanders’ Medicare For All legislation.
 
But that’s not all. Harris wants you to pay for healthcare for illegal aliens. The American people strongly oppose that, and for good reason. Adding tens of millions of illegal aliens to Medicare would overwhelm the system, resulting in deceased care for American citizens, and it would bankrupt the program.
 
This isn’t just a hypothetical issue if Harris wins in November. The Biden/Harris administration is doing it right now with Medicaid.
 
Only American citizens are eligible for Medicaid, and when people sign up, they are supposed to prove their citizenship status. If they can’t, they’re not turned down. They are given coverage for 90 days. During this “grace period,” they are supposed to return with proof of citizenship.
 
But the Biden/Harris administration issued new regulations prohibiting states from enforcing the 90-day “grace period.” In other words, states cannot kick illegal aliens off of Medicaid as long as they claim they’re trying to verify their citizenship status.
 
By the way, the number of illegal aliens on Medicaid jumped by 500% when Biden/Harris opened our borders.
 
That’s an additional burden on taxpayers that threatens to overwhelm the system, leading to reduced care for everyone else.
 
Just another example of the left putting Americans last.
