House Democrats Pushing to Include Illegal Immigrants in Health Care Bill

A group of House Democrats have begun to push for the inclusion of illegal immigrants in any health care bill, calling on other party members to stand up for what they say is the right and responsible action.

The group of about 20 Democrats said illegal immigrants should have the right to pay their way into a government-sponsored health care system, declaring any attempt to block such an effort would be unfair. In addition, the group says legal immigrants should have access to government-backed health care regardless of how long they have been in the country provided they meet the other eligibility requirements.

Addressing the issue concerning health care for legal and illegal immigrants California Democrat Rep. Michael M. Honda has backed the latest push saying, “Legal permanent residents should be able to purchase their plans, and they should also be eligible for subsidies if they need it. Undocumented, if they can afford it, should be able to buy their own private plans. It keeps them out of the emergency room.”
