Weāve been arguing about whether this is true or false this board, but itās finally been looking into by the independent PolitiFact. The verdict:
The claim is a lie. No push to give an illegal immigrants healthcare. Excerpt:
āThe Democrats' proposal wouldnāt give health care to immigrants illegally in the U.S. ā they are already largely ineligible for federally funded health care. Instead, the proposal would restore access to certain health care programs for legal immigrants who will lose access under the Republican law.
The White House did not respond to PolitiFactās request for comment for this fact-check. Vance addressed criticism of his talking point in another interview by saying it was included in the Democratsā spending proposal; itās not.ā
I have something to say, though. Liberals lie way more often than conservatives. Yes, in this particular case we were the liars, but it doesnāt erase the record of lies coming from the liberal side.ā

Do Democrats want health care for āillegal aliensā?
Republicans said Democrats shut down the government because they want health care for immigrants in the U.S. illegally. Thatās False. Democrats want to reverse parts of Trumpās spending law that made some legal immigrants ineligible for health care.www.politifact.com
Quoting "POLITIFACT" as some esteemed arbiter of political truth in 2025 should embarrass you to the point of self-exile.
The fact you honestly posted this as an actual thread and was like "**** YEAH!" is beyond awkward.
It's pathetic.
