A Nashville judge temporarily blocked Tennessee health officials from requiring immigration status checks of HIV-positive individuals enrolled in a healthcare safety-net program.

Chancellor I’Ashea L. Myles issued the temporary restraining order late Wednesday. The order prevents the Tennessee Department of Health from moving forward with a demand that organizations revise their contracts to include immigration status verification as a condition of serving patients in the Ryan White HIV/AIDS program.

The order extends to a companion program known as HOPWA, or Housing Opportunities for People with AIDS. Myles set a Nov. 4 hearing in the case.

I'Ashea needs her status checked.

Maybe the taxpayers will be better off if there the "Ryan White HIV/AIDS program" were to be discontinued. It sounds like a bondage ab initio.

Judges who believe their ideals are superior to the law. They base their decisions on Obergefell.

We must pay for the treatment of foreign sodomites !

Hard to figure.

The only thing ILLEGAL ALIEN INVADERS should get is a kick inn the a** out of the USA. Why should these criminals get ANY “benefits??? This judge is truly a pathetic nitwit.

Any illegal presence in this country should be an IMMEDIATE, hard “NO” for health benefits at the very least. Then ICE should be contacted for further action.

Ghetto to the bone. Who couldn’t see that?

[HamiltonJay]

On what grounds?

Where do they believe some law or constitutional construct protects anyone for citizenship confirmation to receive any sort of social welfare or government funded health care?

With that name, I don’t need to look.
