Two Los Angeles area hospital ERs have been shut down recently under the burden. They're not the first, and they won't be the last. We don't hear a word about it from our muscle-bound governor, from our Senator or Rep...and the illegals keep coming to suck our system dry.
I voted for an unknown Republican running against my L.A. area Democrat state legislator simply because he had a statement in the voter information pack that said he would work to undo benefits for illegal immigrants. Needless to say, he lost!
Does Los Angeles County still have the rule that you must be a resident of the county OR an illegal immigrant in order to receive urgent medical care?
Recall that Los Angeles and San Francisco Counties are so solidly liberal in voting that both counties went to former governor Davis during the recall election.
Just in my district of LA County, the last water quality report was available in 13 languages. At the federal level, the voting information and ballots have stayed at 7 languages.
San Francisco is floating propositions in the 2006 election to allow illegal immigrants to vote in certain local elections AND legalize prostitution.
