[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yup.  Proven in black and white - when you scroll down from what @GOP highlighted in yellow it CLEARLY STATES that it does NOT apply to illegal aliens.   Republicans are LYING about the reasons for the shutdown.  If the Republicans are in the right about all of this then why are they telling PROVEN, UNDISPUTABLE LIES?

The fact remains:  illegal aliens currently receive free medical care in the United States, where they cannot be refused treatment at any emergency room at any time.

Illegal aliens receive emergency Medicaid under a law passed in 1986.  "Hospitals can get federal Medicaid funding to reimburse them for emergency services they are required to provide to low-income individuals, [b]regardless of immigration status,[/b] which includes undocumented people," Mr Cuello told us.

"Emergency Medicaid is very temporary coverage for the medical services provided at all emergency rooms, often just one service on one day, but not necessarily ongoing health insurance enrollment, like a U.S. citizen can pay for, or receives by qualifying for Medicaid," he added.[/quote]

I just want to make it very clear that this Trumper's objection is that undocumented people are not refused treatment in emergency rooms.

I am trying to let that sink in. It sounds like PP is not only against the Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act that has been law since Ronald Reagan, but the idea of public hospitals are treating immigrants in emergency rooms as well.

PP would have hospitals refuse the undocumented emergency care. Just when I think people can't go any lower...[/quote]
