"Statewide, healthcare workers who enroll people in public programs said they’ve been fielding questions from worried immigrants about their health plans and other public benefits.

Elba Gonzalez-Mares, head of the nonprofit Community Health Initiative in Napa County, said her organization has been been helping county workers with urgent requests. Immigrants who lack legal status are eligible for certain public programs, such as food stamps for pregnant mothers or Medi-Cal for those younger than 19."

I thought illegal immigrants don't receive government welfare??

Here’s an idea. Free medical treatment for immediate problem and free transportation back to your home country.

ICE, ICE, baby!
I hope the ILLEGALS (a term they decline to use in the title of course) become afraid of all public assistance - EBT, MCaid, housing, all of it.
The way these people get coddled is unreal.

Go home and your toxic stress about ICE will magically disappear!

“Healthcare providers say President Trump’s aggressive moves against illegal immigration are posing risks to the health of many ‘Californians,’ as patients cancel medical appointments or wait until the last minute to seek treatment.”

All ‘Californians’ are LEGAL? HA!

This is as it should be. The fear of deportation and/or prison NEEDS to be forefront in the minds of any and all alien INVADERS.

Out! Get. Out. OUT!

Never to return to the US. And that free care? Determine who has been hiring invaders. Fine those traitors to pay for the free medical care and transportation back home.

I hope they don't die in the streets. But if they do, it was their choice. Decisions have consequences.

It’s funny because of my high deductible I also avoid hospitals. Where’s my story.

Just identify as an illegal, apparently they will be chasing you down to sign you up for government programs.

“St. John’s, which treats more immigrants who lack legal status than any clinic in the state, “

it used to be that medical centers lost money in treating illegals... now they practice forming human chain to protect them and do all they can to treat more of them. why not just set up shop south of the border then the customers won’t have to be so scared etc.

"those in the U.S. without authorization"

LOL. So that's the new PC term for illegal alien. What happened to "migrant"? That seems more PC than this.

Who is paying for their care?

Immigrants have nothing to worry about.
Illegal aliens are the ones who have broken into our country.

Good.

Last time I was in the ER, I waited for hours, behind mostly non-english speakers.
