Advocates to push Merced County [CA] to help undocumented receive healthcare

Thousands of undocumented immigrants in Merced County don’t have health coverage, but advocates supporting the #Health4All campaign say there are ways Merced County could help that could possibly benefit everyone.

This week, Building Healthy Communities Merced, or BHC, a nonprofit group funded by the California Endowment, released a report outlining ways the county could potentially provide services for undocumented immigrants.

BHS has estimated there are about 25,000 undocumented residents living in Merced County.

Last year in California, undocumented children under age 19 became eligible for full-scope health benefits under Medi-Cal, that was able to give thousands of children insurance.

Elizabeth Arellano, with Faith in Merced, said her parents are undocumented and when it comes to health care, “it’s been a struggle at home.”

“My parents are undocumented and I know the struggle,” Arellano said. “My mom puts her health aside. She chooses between our health and hers and she prefers ours.”

I have a way: deport them and let their home country provide their health care.

Yep, I can help these ILLEGAL ALIENS get healthcare: a south-bound bus across the border. DEPORTATION. Permanent deportation.

CA wants to welcome and pay for their colonization by fraudulently documented foreigners.

Here’s an idea— Merced Co should build a hospital for illegals— in Mexico. Way cheaper too. If you build it they will come —back over the border where they belong.

No, it’s been a struggle in our home because you came here illegally, yours is in another country.

Where is it written that Mexico has the right to dump its peons on the USA, and we must pay for their health care? Oh, that would be the SCOTUS who so ruled in the ‘80s. We should have chased them off the bench the minute that outrageous ruling was published.

Actually they didn't. All they said was that if you have an entitlement like universal education then they have to be allowed in.

Which was wrong on the face of it. The citizens of a foreign nation have no claim on our money.

The big FU to former America continues. We are being colonized. It’s all by design.

One of my first idea is to hit Them in their Wallet for this CRAP, and it should be Statewide and Sting a Whole Bunch, so much so that they literally explode!!

Idea 1.

In All cases where a Trial by a jury of peers was not guaranteed, the cumulative monetary total of all fines, fees, penalties, assessments, or any other monetary consideration shall not exceed Twenty US Dollars.

This would STOP the Ticket Givers COLD FOREVER!!! And there is NOTHING ANYONE could do about it.

See US Constitution
