Hispanic Caucus confirms illegal aliens to get federal healt
Hispanic Caucus confirms illegal aliens to get federal health care
From: Roy Beck, President, NumbersUSA

Hispanic Caucus may be calling shots on House health plan -- ensuring illegal alien coverage
DEAR FRIENDS,
A report from one of the authoritative Capitol Hill publications suggests that the Hispanic Caucus is quite pleased with the way the current House health plan will provide coverage for illegal aliens.
We will be adding new actions through the day for you to fight this.
NEW VIDEO ALERT POSTED
Just before I left D.C., I taped a Video Alert for the week. Take a look.
It will be on our NumbersUSA home page http://www.numbersusa.com/content/ later this morning.
Please send this email far and wide to get as much opposition as possible to U.S. taxpayer health care to all illegal aliens.
WHAT'S UP WITH THE HISPANIC CAUCUS AND PELOSI?
You know we are in trouble when the supporters of a massive taxpayer health benefit giveaway to illegal aliens say the current House plan is just right. The authoritative ROLL CALL publication says Hispanic Caucus Members told it confidentially that the Caucus told Speaker Pelosi not to change a thing because as written illegal aliens will get the benefits.
CHC Presses Pelosi to Include Illegal Immigrants in Health Bill
-- Headline about CHC (Congressional Hispanic Caucus) by Jennifer Bendery in the Roll Call newspaper (July 24, 2009)
Interestingly, the article also says that CHC Chairwoman Nydia Velázquez (D-N.Y.) said that only "documented immigrants" were discussed.
But the reporter got quite a different story from other CHC Members who talked off the record.
A CHC member, who requested not to be identified, said the group is urging Pelosi to ensure that everyone — including illegal immigrants — will be able to receive services . . . 'We’re pushing to include everyone in the health care bill. Everyone,' said one CHC member.
-- Roll Call
So, what does CHC want Pelosi to add to the House Health Bill to make sure 12-20 million illegal aliens get full taxpayer-paid health coverage?
Nothing.
That is because CHC apparently feels that the House Bill as written pretty well guarantees the coverage. Look:
Asked if CHC leaders will ask Pelosi to specifically spell something out in the bill to address illegal immigrants, the Member said no. Rather, the Member said the CHC simply wants to make sure the bill — as drafted — doesn’t prohibit illegal immigrants from accessing care.
-- Roll Call
Our allies on the Hill have been making just this point. Speaker Pelosi and others have been trying to say that the House plan doesn't cover illegal aliens because it doesn't specifically say that it does. Our allies, however, point out that unless legislation specifically bars illegal aliens from anything -- and requires verification -- illegal aliens always end up getting the benefit.
The fact that the Hispanic Caucus appears to be satisfied with the language the way it is suggests that our allies are right.
Roll Call reported that the CHS emphasized to Pelosi that she must block any language that would restrict the federal health plan to illegal aliens.
Once again, it appears that the Hispanic Caucus cares more about illegal aliens than Hispanic American citizens.
We will continue to provide multiple opportunities through the week for NumbersUSA members to fight this incredible reward for immigration lawbreakers. At a time when negotiations are breaking down because of the gigantic projected costs of the House plan and as lawmakers try to find ways to cut benefits to -- and increase taxes on -- U.S. citizens, it is most telling that so many Members of Congress are insistent on protecting beneifts for illegal aliens.
Any federal health plan must include verifiable prohibitions against inclusion of foreign citizens who are illegally in this country.
THANKS FOR PAYING ATTENTION,
I am in Appalachia all this week, leading 45 teenagers in building Habitat for Humanity Houses with the working poor.
But NumbersUSA's Capitol Hill Team is fully engaged inside Congress. And our Action Buffet and Website Teams are at your service day and night as always.
I am in constant touch with Rosemary Jenks on the Hill and will several times a day be coordinating with our able staff.
This is the 20th summer since I began leading these youth teams. We have built houses up and down the Mid-Atlantic and Appalachia where poor housing issues are due to many factors. But the primary factor is that the people getting the houses make too little money at their jobs to be able to afford even these 900-square-feet homes without free-labor and no-interest assistance.
The presence of nearly 40 million foreign workers and their dependents in this country (after 30 years of exorbitant immigration) is certainly a wage-depressing factor that has worked its way eventually throughout the nation's economy even where immigration is quite low, as is the case here. Corporations that might otherwise create jobs in surplus-labor areas, instead expand where foreign labor is so plentiful.

I made calls to my Congressional members to say, speak out on this, let the American people know that this plan is in the works with healthcare reform, that American citizens will be working and paying for millions of citizens of other nations, illegally present, and this is not right.
There are not 47 millions Americans without insurance. The 15 million plus illegal aliens are in that mix, plus young people without insurance, and some others.
Call your Congress members and tell them to break these numbers down, and to tell the American people that they will be standing in line behind millions of illegal aliens for health benefits. They may get less quality care due to the costs with this population. And where does the current sympathy lie with the media and liberal groups, plus open borders groups? With rationing, pressure from civil rights groups will force health providers to walk a fine line to avoid accusations of discrimination.
Fax, email, and call.
Psalm 139:14Matthew 19:26
But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.
