Obamacare 2.0 Guts Enforcement, Gives Illegal Aliens Health Care Through Identity Fraud
breitbart ^ | KATIE MCHUGH

Posted on 03/07/2017 2:01:41 PM PST by davikkm

The Obamacare 2.0 bill pushed by some Republicans strips out even Obamacare’s weak protections preventing illegal aliens from signing up for health care meant for citizens. A draft of the bill, released by the House Committee on Ways and Means, cannot even include bare-bones provisions requiring officials to check an enrollee’s immigration status, the Conservative Review’s Daniel Horowitz warns, calling it a “gift to illegal aliens.”

Obamacare included provisions from an earlier bill allowing illegal aliens with fraudulent documents to apply while the government and Obamacare managers looked the other way. Eager for welfare state clients and looking to grease the skids for a massive amnesty down the road, Obamacare navigators signed up thousands of illegal aliens for benefits.

“President Obama had already paved the path for illegal alien Obamacare when he signed the massive expansion of the State Children’s Health Insurance Program (S-CHIP) in 2009,” conservative author Michelle Malkin explained in March 2014. “As I’ve reported previously, the law loosened eligibility requirements for legal immigrants and their children by watering down document and evidentiary standards—making it easy for individuals to use fake Social Security cards to apply for benefits with little to no chance of getting caught. In addition, Obama’s S-CHIP expansion revoked Medicaid application time limits that were part of the 1996 welfare reform law.”

It makes a lot more sense now. He did say these other items will be moved legislatively as seperate bills, but they will face the 60 vote threshold in the Senate.

Yeah, we've heard this sort of song and dance routine before. I'd rather they rip it out down to the last root, then start over from scratch.

Paul Ryan is full of it. The original bill was passed using reconciliation, so I can be repealed/replaced using reconciliation. Tell the Senate parliamentarian to shove it.

A bait & switch con, ‘And’ logic, that turns good into bad, by Republican sneeks.

Subtract bad. (GOOD)
Subtract bad AND Add bad! (BAD)

Repeal the bad. (GOOD)
Repeal the bad AND Replace with bad! (BAD)

Remove the wart. (GOOD)

Re “Better to not pass anything and let Obamacare collapse than to own Ryancare.”

Your comment is Succinct and Accurate.

Plus RinoCare will be even worse to get rid of if stupidity saves it from itself, temporarily of course, until we get “The Full Gruber” of nationalized (fascist) health care by elitists.


We LET a snake, with its back-curved teeth that only ratchet one way, strangle us for 8 years, when we could have escaped at first and we easily should have escaped the last four.

We THEN let the snake start EATING us.

Then in 2016 we regained consciousness and rallied...but...

NOW we are being told by RINOs, “go ahead, continue to let this SNAKE take a bit bigger bite, not the same bite, it’s OK.”

And WHY??? “Because we are just getting started, it will be OK, why are you so negative.”

We are supposed to be fighting. Stop being DemocratLites.

They get rid of the mandate but put in a 30% increase in insurance premiums mandated by the law if you let your insurance lap more than two months. Why are they doing that? !

Well said. This is the first cut.

President Trump will have his input and it is populist based usually. Let your voice be heard!!

The washington swamp dwellers on the other hand, do whatever gets the most votes or costs the least. They could care less about what is right, morally or for the country.

Trump and the base will have to hammer these congresscritters into compliance.

They are trying to cover the illegal aliens because they know only about 2 million criminal illegal aliens are going to be removed, leaving 28 million still here.

It’s a disaster. Obama at least wanted the uninsured to pay for their insurance, this one makes the taxpayers pay for it. It creates another FEDERAL welfare program.

No. That was not precedent. Roberts ruling the mandate was a tax made it precedent. So setting to zero is all you can do. You can’t eliminate things without it being ruled something other than budget reconciliation.

All you can do is set numbers to 0, which is done.

I just love the way ObucketOshit gets credit for the 6 years of work by our illustrious Republicans and new President.

Hey, President Trump and you great leaders in the House and Senate, you OWN this great piece of work, call it Trumpcare.

You cannot run from your wheeling and dealing

Let’s not get our panties in a wad over something that is just beginning to formulate!

That is right. No sense in getting all worked up and holding their feet to the fire over these little things that make us upset and find faults with. We should just sit back and wait for them to pass it and then find out what is in it like Nancy Pelosi says.

Thanks for the advice, Yankee

Lights on but no one is listening.

Too many government jobs depend on Obamacare and now Trumpcare to have it whittled down to nothing

We don’t need a federal health care. Repeal Obamacare and allow interstate insurance sales and insist each insurance company selling in the US offer low cost catastrophic and high cost pre-existing.

Use the President’s bully pulpit to offer funding for states encouraging PRIVATE CHARITIES opening low cost clinics in their state.

Done.

This is Breitbart Fake News.This is not correct. Illegals under Obamacare COULD stay signed up until they showed some documents, which they never did. The new bill DOES NOT allow them to sponge. Tim Sandefur is the principle lawyer at the Pacific Legal Foundation and went thru the new law this A.M.
