Immigration Reform to Make I.A.'s Eligible for Healthcare?
"The health care reform plan approved by three House committees makes legal permanent residents eligible for federal subsidies to buy health insurance even though illegal aliens are not."
Hoyer Won't Answer Directly Whether Immigration Reform Would Make Current Illegal Aliens Eligible for Federally Subsidized Health Insurance Under Obamacare
Wednesday, September 16, 2009
By Matt Cover
(CNSNews.com) – House Majority Leader Rep. Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) intimated that if comprehensive immigration reform is passed, it could provide a method for immigrants currently living illegally in the U.S. to get federally subsidized health care.
Hoyer, speaking at his weekly press briefing Tuesday, was asked by CNSNews.com whether creating a pathway to citizenship for illegal aliens--a key part of comprehensive reform--would mean that currently-illegal aliens would become eligible for federal health care subsidies under the health-care reform plan.
Hoyer did not answer directly, saying instead that it was equally true that illegal aliens could return home and re-emigrate legally to become eligible for insurance subsidies:
CNSNews.com: You’ve indicated your support for a pathway to citizenship as part of comprehensive immigration reform. If that comprehensive reform is passed--with that pathway--isn’t it true that people who are now here illegally would be eligible for federal subsidies, when health care gets passed?
Rep. Steny Hoyer, House Majority Leader: It’s also true that if they went back home and were authorized to come in and were here legally (they would be eligible.) There’s all sorts of ‘ifs’ that you could hypothesize.
Hoyer pointed out that under the House’s version of health-care reform, illegal aliens are barred from receiving health subsidies.
“The bottom line is, though, that the bill makes it perfectly clear that under the bill those who are not here (legally) and those who are not authorized to be here cannot benefit from this particular legislation.â€Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)

Dumb, dumb, dumb. Why would we, and why do we, keep letting people in who can not support themselves, and then lay out the red carpet for free services and benefits at such costs to the American people?

But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.

Straightalk, this ain't. Hopefully, Hoyer does not think we are that stupid to appreciate every soundbyte a politician throws at us even if it has nothing to do with the topic. Evasion at its stupidest.
