Minnesota Dems Fight to Keep Free Health Care for Illegal Immigrants Despite Soaring Costs, Backlash

Minnesota Democrats are doubling down on their radical agenda, pledging to “fight until the very end” to provide free health care to illegal immigrants, on the backs of hardworking taxpayers. As everyday Minnesotans struggle with rising premiums, longer wait times, and an overstretched health care system, progressive lawmakers are prioritizing illegal immigrants over legal residents.

Dozens of Democrats from Minnesota’s Democratic–Farmer–Labor Party (DFL) rallied outside the state House chamber on Friday to oppose a new policy that would end free health care for undocumented adult immigrants by year’s end, while still allowing coverage for children to continue.

Protesters held signs with messages such as "We Stand with Immigrants" and "Empathy: Good Government's Superpower!" They also read anonymous stories from individuals who received life-saving treatment or medication through MinnesotaCare. This state program began offering coverage to low-income individuals not eligible for Medicaid starting January 1.

Calling an Illegal an undocumented immigrant is like calling a Meth dealer an Unlicensed Pharmacist.

I would deport every illegal tomorrow if I could.

But the services that fall under “healthcare” are required by law. Either they are “free” (taxpayers pay) or no one pays, which accelerates the failure of all system elements that provide the care.

They shouldn’t be here to receive the care at all.

"Rent a Mob" of a few dozen 'protesters' is cheap compared to paying lobbyists. And it gives lie the impression the people support this crap. Pity party stories aren't working well when your own kids can't afford medical care.

The goal is to bring in millions and make them citizens so they can vote democrat and the dems can keep their power and turn this country into a non-Christian non-White socialist dictatorship.

They are willing to spend billions of our dollars to make this happen.

I would absolutely love for Trump, if he can, to eliminate withholding and make paying your taxes a monthly or quarterly event.

That would cure so much of this bullshit liberal spending by stupid liberals who seem to think money comes from someone other than them. When they pay month after month - physically writing the check - they might get a clue how badly they are being financially hosed by their wonderful liberal leaders.

Go for it Minnesota ... criminal illegal aliens have a right to healthcare at your expense. If every Minnesota tax paying resident chips in another 10 to 20% more those criminal illegal aliens will love you.

I agree with you, but if the government went to that system their take would drop by (guessing here) 75%. Most people spend every penny they can get their hands on and then borrow more to support a lifestyle that they should tone down.

The Democrats know that their entire philosophy is diametrically opposed to traditional American values. Hence the drive to import as many parasites from third world shitholes who have no education, no skills, no desire to work, but will reliably vote for the party that promises them the most money that was stolen from the hard working real American taxpayers.

The Democrats goal is to turn America into a totalitarian political state that makes North Korea look like it’s run by libertarians. With them in charge of the peasants of course.

The whole goal of Democrats’ “fiscal policy” to use the term advisedly, is to set records of prolfligacy with OTHER PEOPLES’ money.

Treasonous in my opinion, but no one asked my opinion.

Considering that criminals make a significant fraction of the Democrat base, that makes sense.

Muslims have taken over Minnesota and they hate democracy and seems they want to use any means possible for it to fail.
