Millions of Uninsured Latinos Live in States Without Spanish Obamacare Sites
National Journal ^ | October 23, 2013 | By Clara Ritger

Over 1.2 million uninsured Latinos in the United States do not have access to a Spanish-language Obamacare website.

Nearly 60 percent of the state-run exchanges offer consumers only an English version of their Affordable Care Act website.

The states without Spanish language exchange sites are Connecticut, District of Columbia, Hawaii, Idaho, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New York, Vermont, and Washington.

An HHS spokesperson declined to comment on when that feature might be made available and whether it might be related to the technical trouble with Healthcare.gov.

Learn English or go home. It really is that simple. Lazy freeloaders expecting a free ride from our hard earned money. They have no conscious.

Spreak Engrish!

English should be the official language,
taught in all schools, used in all official business.

If you can’t speak English, you shouldn’t get any freebies from this country! Go home and try to get it there.

Sounds like a huge class action lawsuit waiting to happen.

Uncle Sam promised me healthcare. I couldn't sign up for healthcare because the website didn't work or It was in a language foreign to me (English). I died as a result of not having healthcare.

Then go back home. Immigrants are required to know English, so these are illegal aliens.

Remember when we called for all voters to have picture IDs? They said the poor minorities didn't have IDs, couldn't get IDs.

THEY CALLED US ALL RACISTS.

Now, they want those same people to do something infinitely harder....sign up for obamacare!!!

I sense a class action lawsuit coming on. The we give them 40 acres and a mule, followed by reparations.

Wonder if all the ‘’Latinos’’ will have to show some sort of I.D. to sign up for Obama care? Hmmmmmm How about those elderly and low income citizens who have no mode of transportation to get a picture ID so they can vote? Hmmmm

“Connecticut, District of Columbia, Hawaii, Idaho, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New York, Vermont, and Washington”?

If you are going to sneak that deep into a country illegally, you think that Spanish would be the last thing you should expect anyone to speak.

We have ton's of Somali truck drivers picking up our orders they come from Minneapolis. One day we found one praying to Mecca in our parking lot. If I had a tank I would have ran him over. I made my boss finally lock the office up don't want no rag heads walking in.

How about Chinese and Farsi, and the other 300 languages so people from
around the globe can sign up too. And we know any interested
person will sign up from across the planet.

Zerocare works for everyone, nothing for something.

This is very disturbing, many came here to get great health care.

And no amnesty either.
