California’s health care exchange is requesting that it be allowed a waiver from ObamaCare regulations in order to allow illegal immigrants to buy insurance on the exchange – which would make California the first state to extend ObamaCare to illegal immigrants.

In a Sept. 30 letter to Health and Human Services Secretary Sylvia Burwell, Covered California’s Executive Director Peter Lee said that the Affordable Care Act has been “tremendously successful” in the state and has cut the rate of uninsured in half.
“While millions of Californians have benefitted from coverage purchased through the Covered California marketplace, certain individuals are prohibited from buying insurance through our state marketplace due to their immigration status,” Lee wrote, before requesting the waiver.

Yep, he has been proven correct. Maybe the MSM would like to apologize to him now?
Fruits and nuts.
When is it going to fall into the ocean?
Even the illegal aliens are not dumb enough to sign up for 0bamacare. If if costs them one peso they won’t buy it, but if it is free, that is different.
This is what happens when you let welfare cases vote and retard get elected. What’s CA got now for normal Americans that work for a living? 20 percent?
Time to flush.
President Trump can’t get here fast enough. The alien invasion must stop.
This is just a ploy to get them signed up for the federal subsidies. Nothing more. Shifts the financial burden from California tax payers to the rest of us to cover their expenses. No chance any illegal pays the full amount of their premiums under this proposal.
What Obamacare was all about in the first place - killing Americans to benefit illegal invaders more susceptible to Obama’s socialist schemes and more willing to work at coolie wages for pig capitalists.
How about the rest of the world, too, while you’re at it?
California petitions to become first state to admit it offers ObamaCare to illegal immigrants
What part of ILLEGAL do these morons not understand?
Crap like this makes me think Trump might have a chance to win California - unless every sane person has already left that pathetic state.
But by tapping into Obamacare, California is now moving towards using the 10th Amendment-protected revenues of other states stolen by the feds by means of unconstitutional federal taxes to pay for healthcare for illegal immigrants.
“Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States.” —Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
What a mess! :^(
California voters rejected this. But our leaders think they know better. They’re counting on a Hillary victory. I’d love to be a fly on the wall when the results come in with a Trump win.
WTF . . . have I just awakened from a nightmare to find out its actually true?
“While millions of Californians have benefitted from coverage purchased through the Covered California marketplace, certain individuals are prohibited from buying insurance through our state marketplace due to their immigration status,” Lee wrote.
Why not just say
“While millions of bank customers have benefitted from being able to withdraw cash from this bank, certain individuals are prohibited from withdrawing money here due to their not having an account at this bank. We seek to rectify this.”
And that’s it. They will won’t pay squat.
Bingo!
