Fact Checking a 'Fact Checker' on Medicaid for Illegals

 

you know that your piece is a half-truth. Right? And a half-truth is a lie. Focus on these Facts: Some Blue states have restructured budgets to let them expand Medicaid coverage to Illegal Aliens who should not qualify, while still drawing from federal Medicaid matching funds. For example, California (and other states) tax hospitals & insurers, then recycle the $$$ back through Medicaid payments. That inflated spending triggers more federal matching funds, which are then used to give coverage to illegals. California, Oregon, Washington, Illinois, NY, & NJ offer full health coverage to illegals. On paper, it's a 'state program', but in practice, these programs rely on the same infrastructure & funding flows as Medicaid. The result is Medicaid $$$, both state and federal, are being used directly and indirectly to pay for the health care of illegal aliens. Your piece below needs a Warning Label that reads: 'Mostly Wrong but Helpful to Democrats'. FACT FOCUS: Democrats did not shut down the government to give health care to 'illegal immigrants' https://apnews.com/article/fact-c
