Illegals and health care

WASHINGTON-A group of house democrats is once again stirring up the health care reform pot. They're arguing that any health care bill should extend to all legal immigrants and even allow illegal immigrants access as well.
Coverage for illegals is one of the thorniest issues in the health care debate. But its one thorn that can't be avoided.
Some house dems are saying there is no sense not having illegals in the health care system because when they go to emergency rooms we end up paying for their care anyway.
More than two dozens congressman recently sent two letters to key players in the reform debate in both the house and the senate laying out the demands.
Some of these demands include elimination of the five year waiting period for legal immigrants in the medicaid program and opposing the recent senate proposal that would bar illegal immigrants from buying unsubsidized health insurance coverage.
