Mass. grapples with immigrants' health care costs
Mass. grapples with immigrants' health care costs

BOSTON — Massachusetts is grappling with the question of whether to deny subsidized health care to 30,000 legal immigrants living in the state.
The budget approved by lawmakers last month eliminated health care funding for legal immigrants, saving the state an estimated $130 million.
Patrick signed the budget, but asked lawmakers to partially reinstate the coverage by restoring $70 million.
House Speaker Robert DeLeo said the state's fiscal situation isn't getting any stronger, but he is hoping to reach some kind of resolution on the issue as early as Wednesday.
Immigrant advocates say the cut hurts taxpaying legal immigrants and sets a bad precedent for the national health care debate.

The Government should keep the cut off but I doubt it will last they should at least restrict access for illegal aliens but Patrick is totally in the bag for them.
I support enforcement and see its lack as bad for the 3rd World as well. Remittances are now mostly spent on consumption not production assets. Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)

If an immigrant is legal, how is it he is NOT a citizen ?

Because why would there be any question of whether or not to insure 30,000 legal immigrants?
It sounds like the subsidized health care being given to legal immigrants in Mass. is given by the state, not the federal government. Obviously, because of cost, Mass. is rethinking there policy."The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing" ** Edmund Burke**
