You Lie: Democrats Vote to Give Free Healthcare to Illegal Immigrants ​

As Roll Call reported:

The Senate early Saturday morning defeated the amendment to the budget resolution which would have put the Senate on record as opposing access to health care under Medicaid or the Affordable Care Act for undocumented immigrants who get a green card.

Just to clarify, there is ambiguity in the Obamacare law and the GOP’s measure would have resolved it. The Democrats voted in committee to block it. This is what the Obamacare law states:

Does Not Require Proof of Citizenship to Obtain Health Services: While Section 246 (page 143) of the bill expressly prohibits illegal aliens from receiving government-run healthcare, the bill does not include a specific requirement that a person prove his or her citizenship in order to obtain affordability credits, which means that illegal aliens could obtain coverage.

So the Democrats know that this is a flaw in the bill and they refuse to fix it. This is how it works: the Democrats in office want power. In order to get power, they need voters. And to get voters, they bribe them with other people’s money.

What, are American citizens going to finance healthcare for the rest of the world? We could just pay for Canada too, while we’re at it.

Some young migrants in Laredo protest released
Oct 1,`13 -- Eight of the 34 young migrants who presented themselves to immigration officials at the U.S.-Mexico border without legal documents have been released from U.S. custody, a lawyer said Tuesday.

The others remained in detention, but U.S. authorities haven't said where, immigration attorney David Bennion said. Nearly all of the group who marched across one of Laredo's international bridges Monday in colorful graduation gowns and caps say they spent long stretches of their childhoods in the U.S. after being taken there by their families at early ages and are demanding to be let back in. Bennion said seven were released from an Immigration and Customs Enforcement office around noon Tuesday. He said they were paroled from removal from the U.S. for one year after requesting asylum and are to appear before immigration judges in the coming months.

He said the eighth was released late Monday. He said she was a Honduran woman who joined the group of young Mexicans who were staying at a migrant shelter in Nuevo Laredo before staging the protest. She was trying to enter the U.S. to get medical help for her 4-year-old daughter, who is a U.S. citizen and has cerebral palsy, Bennion said. "It's a demonstration that the government can do what we're asking," Bennion said, adding that he hoped the remaining 26 would see a similar outcome. U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials have said privacy laws prohibit them from discussing individual cases.

Wearing graduation-style caps and gowns, Mexican youth raised in the U.S, chant slogans outside a migrant shelter before crossing the international bridge from Nuevo Laredo, Mexico, Monday Sept. 30, 2013. Wearing a colorful array of graduation-style caps and gowns, 34 young people who spent long stretches of their childhoods in U.S. cities like Phoenix and Boston chanted "undocumented and unafraid" as they crossed the Rio Grande into Texas.

The protesters were following the path of the "Dream Nine," a smaller group that attempted to enter the U.S. at Nogales, Arizona, in July. That group requested asylum and was released after about two weeks in detention to await their turns before a judge. At the heart of both groups' protest was a change to U.S. immigration regulations made in June 2012 giving something called deferred action to immigrants who were brought to the country illegally as children. Those who were in the U.S. at that time and met a list of criteria could apply for a renewable two-year deferment and work authorization. But the young people crossing Monday had left the U.S., either voluntarily or through deportation, months, weeks or even just days before the deferred action announcement.

One of the protesters was Edna Flores, 22, of Hermosillo in Sonora state. She was taken by her family illegally to the U.S. when she was 6, but she voluntarily left Phoenix in January 2012 after deciding her options for finding work or continuing her education were limited after graduating from high school. Flores, who found work in Mexico at a call center, took a 26-hour bus ride last week to Nuevo Laredo to join the group preparing for Monday's protest march. "I just want to be back with my family," she said before they were taken into custody.
