While several Democrats have declared that Republican predictions that voting for Democrats will lead to Medicare benefits being given to illegal aliens are a lie, Sen. Bernie Sanders' "Medicare for All" legislation would do exactly that. Sanders asserted that "medical care is a human right that must be provided to all humans regardless of their citizenship. Republican efforts to restrict these benefits to only US citizens is a crime against humanity."
Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass) still insisted that "Republicans are lying. Right now there is nothing in the existing law that authorizes giving these benefits to undocumented immigrants. The implication that our Party would violate the law to give aid to those not entitled to it is a smear tactic."
Sen. Tina Smith (D-Minn) echoed Warren's claim, saying "of course Republicans are lying. Federal law today says health insurance benefits cannot be used by people who are undocumented, who are not here legally. That is the law. There is nothing that we are currently trying to do to change that law."
Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-Md) said "the claim that Democrats want to provide health care for illegals is a big lie. I want to remind everyone that Sen. Sanders is not a Democrat. He is an Independent. Democrats cannot be held responsible for his 'Medicare for All' bill. We may end up voting for it in the next Congress, but it is wrong for Republicans to try to use this future possibility against Democrats in this year's election to try to scare voters into voting against us."
The Democrat nominee for US Senate in Michigan, Abdul El-Sayed, has made "Medicare for All" — including illegal aliens — a major campaign promise. Eighteen Senate Democrats, including Warren, Smith, and Van Hollen are co-sponsors of Sanders' bill. This evidence seems to verify the Republican claim that voting Democrats into a majority in Congress would lead to enactment of legislation granting federal Medicare and Medicaid benefits to illegal aliens.
In related news, Rep. Delia Ramirez (D-Ill) is sponsoring a "Reimagining Safety Act" that would replace the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) with a new Department of Community Safety (DCS) and eliminate Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). "It's time we ended the persecution and put out the welcome mat that former President Biden laid out for the brave individuals who endured perilous journeys to come and share in the wealth our country has accumulated," she said. Co-sponsors of her bill include Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich), Rep. Adelita Grijalva (D-Ariz), and Jim McGovern (D-Mass).

Bernie, sell two of your three houses to cover the illegals! After all, it’s a human right Bro!
Of course it does. You didn’t think the Dumocrats would stop trying to completely destroy the health care industry do you? Obamacare was just the first stab.
Worldwide, no matter where they live, right Bernie?
There is no end to virtue signaling as a way to power.
Of course illegals are going to get free health care, the Dems need illegals to keep voting Dem right, that is how they will buy their vote, FREE EVERYTHING just vote Dem..and just wait til the Dems import 100 MILLION MORE illegals into this country and give them freebies, you’ll be waiting 4 yrs to see a doc if you are lucky
I remember when Obamacare passed there was a provision in the bill saying that no member of congress or senate has to enroll LOL..if Obamacare is SO wonderful, EVERY member of congress and senate has to enroll PERIOD
If this happens, every American will have to pay $209 additional taxes to pay for the Medicare for all. Illegal aliens better have to pay as well.
How is healthcare a human right?
Someone else has to provide it.
One cannot be compelled to provide service to another.
And while we're at it, why can't they also vote in US elections from their own countries? The Democrats can mail ballots to them with addressed, stamped return envelopes so they can vote.
Nope, new Democrat voters.
Not all Americans. Not even All living in the US, legally or not.
They do intend to bring everyone in the world here so they can receive medical attention on our dime.
Gov’t Healthcare - unconstitutional and an utter disaster.
Make use of other peoples money is ok with Bernie. His wife acquired one million dollars for negotiating a 12million dollar loan for the school she represented. Of course Bernie kept her from going to prison. They are real low-lifes.
AND-—IF HE DOES THAT WON’T BUY A MONTH OF FREE CARE
Dems’ “Medicare for All” Includes Illegal Aliens which will number close to 8 billion, if enacted.
At a club event in Baja a member was injured requiring several stitches to close the wound. The hospital we took him to would not touch him without full payment up front.
Democrats are the same people that call every large business a “monopoly” that must be taxed out of existence or parceled out to incompetent 3rd world bidders.
Yet they think that government monopolies, protected by men with guns, will be beneficial somehow.
I can go to my dentist tomorrow paying cash.
I can take my dogs to the vet tomorrow paying cash.
I can go to an eye doctor at Walmart for new glasses today.
When I tried to go to a podiatrist, paying cash at our local cartel run medical facility, it was 7 months out. (Turns out it was gout)
I logged on to Amazon’s medical service and it cost me $40 to have an AI doctor prescribe meds for a gout flare. (Horrible condition and I had no idea what it was and hit my wrist and foot. Hurt as bad as having to sit through Kamala Harris lecture).
Let Walmart, Costco, Walgreens, and Amazon run hospitals. They can bring me a ripe avocado and banana from 10,000 miles away, in the store right this second, they can get me healthcare too. I trust a purchasing agent at Krogers more than I ever would a government drone.
If you want to keep your plan you can keep .................
Well...”all” usually means everyone so I’d expand it to include all humans on earth.
