(PatriotHQ) Why should international trespassers be rewarded with free healthcare, HUD housing and Federal ID numbers so they can take US Workers job!
Do you agree? Granting DACA to Illegal Aliens, Says Tom Cotton Medicaid and Obamacare are a “insult to American citizenship,” according to some.
Rep. Tom Cotton (R-AR) stated in an opinion piece published Thursday President Joe Biden’s proposal to provide illegal immigrants covered by DACA with access to Medicaid and Obamacare exchanges is a “insult to American citizenship.”
Vice President Joe Biden recently announced hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants covered by the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program would be able to enroll in Medicaid.
“Today, my administration is making public our strategy to increase access to health care for Dreamers, the thousands of young people who were brought to the United States illegally as children. Biden added, “We are not done fighting for their pathway to citizenship, but in the meantime, we are providing them with the opportunities they deserve.”
Rewarding illegal immigration will bring more illegal immigration.
This is an insult to American citizenship. https://t.co/TUDBcd6yhc

Cotton was upset by this and felt it devalues being an American.
Rewarding illegal immigration, he wrote, will only encourage more of it. This is a slur against the honor of all Americans.
Considering millions of illegal aliens in the United States do not have health insurance, Biden’s decision constitutes a huge extension of Medicaid and Obamacare, as reported by the Associated Press.
However, undocumented immigrants in the United States are disproportionately likely to be uninsured. HHS estimates more than a third of DACA recipients do not have access to any form of health insurance. According to studies conducted by the Kaiser Family Foundation, about half of the approximately 20 million undocumented immigrants living in the United States do not have health insurance.
The present health care law would be drastically altered because Obamacare denied giving illegal aliens higher priority than American citizens.
For example, “Undocumented immigrants aren’t eligible to buy Marketplace health coverage, or for premium tax credits and other savings on Marketplace plans,” as stated on the Federal Health Insurance Exchange website. Colorado Republicans Reps. Ken Buck, Doug Lamborn, and Lauren Boebert reported in May 2022 the state was taking steps to extend healthcare coverage to illegal aliens using federal pass-through monies provided by the Affordable Care Act (ACA).
at his final 2009 push for the passage of Obamacare, Obama made the claim illegal immigrants would not be eligible for coverage at his State of the Union speech.
Rep. Joe Wilson (R-SC) yelled “You lie!” during the State of the Union because of this.
Inconclusion. Why should the US reward law breakers? They break the law coming here and continue to break the law by staying here! Now they demand the same benefits, and more than most US Citizens have! When is enough, enough?
Your opinion?
