HillaryCare Door Wide Open to Illegal Aliens

Hillary Clinton claims her universal healthcare program will not cover illegal aliens, but the positions of her lead advisor on immigration and recent statements she has made to Spanish-language media outlets indicate otherwise.

The top campaign expert on Hispanic issues for the New York senator running for President has a long history of orchestrating lobbying efforts for taxpayer-funded healthcare, drivers’ licenses and free in-state tuition for illegal aliens, as well as bilingual requirements for state agencies.

Raul Yzaguirre, who was president and CEO of the National Council of La Raza from 1974-2004, is now the co-chair of Clinton’s presidential campaign and chair of her Hispanic outreach team.

Notably, in his long career for the open borders advocacy group, Yzaguirre was called to testify before Mrs. Clinton’s tight-knit 12-member health care task force team in March 1993.

There, Yzaguirre said that universal healthcare “ought to cover the undocumented citizens.â€

Hillary will contort like a gymnast to try to spin away the fact that her universal health care scheme won't cover illegal aliens. We know otherwise.

And it is not unnoticed that she hired such an ethnocentric person as a high ranking campaign official.
