Oregon judge gives the world a right to demand free health care along with entry to UShe view held by Democrats that the entire world is entitled to come here and demand access to our health care system on the public dime is not just a political aspiration. They now believe it’s a legal right strong enough to give them standing in court to sue our president. As such, now is the perfect test for the president to see whether he will follow long-standing immigration law or an illegal order by an Oregon judge.
In 1996, Congress passed the latest public charge law on a bipartisan basis to ensure that those entering the country on long-term visas are not likely to live on welfare. There is no more common and costly charge than health care, but previous administrations have failed to enforce the law, as has been the case with so many parts of immigration law.
To that end, the president issued a proclamation in October ordering that effective November 30, most immigrants seeking entry must be “covered by approved health insurance … within 30 days†of entry, or “possess … the financial resources to pay for reasonably foreseeable medical costs.†The criteria for what constitutes coverage are very loose. The applicants can hold any catastrophic plan or show the ability to pay out of pocket. Or they could show they have a clean bill of health. This is not like an Obamacare mandate on immigrants; it’s simply to say that taxpayers must not be saddled with a substantial bill.
In comes Michael Simon, a federal judge in Oregon, over the weekend and unilaterally vetoes our sovereignty and foundational immigration laws by saying the president overstepped his boundaries applying the public charge law. He issued a nationwide injunction for four weeks. The Constitution accords Simon the power to do this the same way it accords me the power to enjoin Trump’s Twitter account. In other words, he has no such power, nor does he have the power to enforce it..........
