Democrat Messaging Falters as They Ask Constituents to Foot Medicaid Costs for 1.4 Million Illegal Aliens

House Republicans are moving to block an estimated 1.4 million illegal aliens from receiving American taxpayer-funded Medicaid as Democrats struggle to message their support for the unpopular position.


The House Energy and Commerce Committee completed its markup of its portion of the budget reconciliation bill Wednesday morning after an all-night session which included a provision blocking anyone unable to verify citizenship, nationality, or satisfactory immigration status from coverage.


The committee projects 1.4 million illegal aliens will be removed from the program due to those requirements.

Yet, every Democrat on the committee opposed the bill, with even Democrats not on the committee blasting the proposal to block illegal aliens from the program.

House Democrat Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) ignored a question from CNN’s Wolf Blitzer about the cost savings from striking illegal aliens from the taxpayer dole Wednesday and if fighting it would “open up” Democrats to attacks that they support tax dollars going to illegal aliens.

It's great the way democrats continue to ignore public sentiment of Americans.

Every dollar than goes to an illegal border crosser is a dollar that does not go to an American or legal immigrant in need.

It's them, or us.  There is only a finite amount of resources available, and each appropriation has opportunity cost - it's no longer available to be appropriated for something else.

Either you represent America and Americans, or you represent the Globalists.

Americans sacrificed their lives, bodies, and minds to save the World during both World Wars, not Globalists.

What are Globalists sacrificing to make the World a better place?  Nothing.  They are mandating that others make sacrifices for them.
