Colorado Democrats are celebrating the law that goes into effect on January 1, which will provide free Medicaid coverage for pregnant illegal immigrants, as well as children who have migrated. The taxpayer-funded (aren’t all of them?) The state Medicaid program will provide funding for prenatal, postpartum, physical, mental, and dental health care. Colorado taxpayers could pay up to $51,000,000 in the beginning.

 

This one has me a little torn.

 

On one hand, the plan “Cover All Coloradans”, which focuses on comprehensive health care for children, seems to be a major focus. The California wannabe has become an intentional magnet for illegals.

 

CBS News reports that Democrat Gov. Jared Polis’s administration “works with a list immigrant activists groups to alert migrants to the fact that they are eligible and can sign up while assuring them that their personal data and lack of legal status will not be supplied to immigration authorities.”

 

Translation:

 

Colorado taxpayers are forced to pay for the comprehensive health care of aliens who have intentionally entered the US without permission. Colorado Democrat officials are also refusing to give federal immigration officials information on their illegal immigration status. There’s nothing wrong with that at all. Hey, but, hey, play stupid games by voting for Democrats and win stupid prizes.

 

 

Here’s more:

 

Families are being enrolled by organizations that serve immigrants. They also work to combat any fears people may have of disclosing their information to the government.

 

Denver Health’s Bryan Rodriguez said that an initiative is underway to educate illegals on the new Medicaid coverage. We have heard from the community that there are some concerns regarding the possible future implications of the new administration, which will be taking over in January. According to the current Colorado state law, the client’s privacy is protected when they apply for public benefits.

 

“Clients.” How quaint.

 

CBS reports that the “public charge” rule states that an officer of US Citizenship and Immigration Services may refuse admission to a person if he or she believes the person will become dependent in the future on government benefits, making them a “public charge.”

 

Please. Above, the operative word is “may.” Raise your hands if you believe Colorado Democrats will deny coverage to anyone who is in the country illegally.

 

The massive cost of this program is a concern for many state Republicans, who voted unsuccessfully against the expansion of Medicaid in 2022.

 

 

Matt Soper, Republican State Rep. told CBS that the budget constraints of Colorado residents are causing them to lose their benefits due to adding illegals to Medicaid.

 

Undocumented immigrants should not receive programs and services that are not available to Colorado citizens.

 

This. Is. Insane. It’s also a left-wing show, so the word “insane”, which is inclusive, can be used.

 

A report by the U.S. House Committee on Homeland Security in November 2023 reported that the Biden Administration’s deliberate and ongoing illegal alien border crisis costs the U.S. taxpayers $451 billion a year.

 

I’m done for the moment.
