Isn’t it strange that one on protest or rally in any of the three states with cuts. Although they managed to do so for the big beautiful bill that won’t affect Medicaid until 2029. Seems suspicious.

Yet another euphemism for illegal alien ...”lacking legal status.”

Yes and one of the bonus visits these employers of illegal aliens will get after ICE departs is from the IRS. When they get convicted of felonies and have to pay penalties, fines, interest, etc. will it be worth it?

Medicaid is jointly funded by state and federal. Some states added illegals to the program but agreed they would pay 100% for them.

The data still ends up in the federal system which is why they are freaking out over that data being shared with ICE.

Yeah, education should be next. I live in an area with a high level of illegal immigrants. Our school district has 17% of the student population that are consider English Language Learners. Schools are also funded by property taxes and many large extended families live in small houses which pay little property taxes. Schools are also taxes keep going up and people can’t figure out why.

Maybe start having ICE sit outside emergency rooms? Get treatment and then get deported.

Maria. Been here ILLEGALLY FOR 20 YEARS. Doesn’t speak English. Doesn’t work. Gets FREE healthcare, food, clothing and a place to live.

Who wouldn’t love that? Oh, yeah. TAXPAYERS - but who listens to THEM?

Thank you, President Trump. Your policies are saving BILLIONS.

Roll back Medicaid access for people lacking legal status.

Good deal now the hospitals will have room for citizens to be treated.

Maybe Maria should have gone back to Mexico and got her healthcare from them, instead of whining how she had to wait so long to get free healthcare on our dime.
