Democrats care about illegals more than their own citizens

Well, illegals (or at least their names stuffed in boxes) are the Democrats' own voters.

Yup. They want to create another black voting block but this time it’s latino flavored.

Democrats will think they can pull a rabbit out of a hat one more time. They’re too infected with TDS to see people(enough) are now awaken to their bullsh!t

It's actually about extending Healthcare Premium Tax Credits for lower income working American citizens.
You can't get a Tax Credit unless you have taxable income and you file a Tax Return with a SSN proving that you're a citizen.
Much of Trump's base is low income WORKING people that will lose health insurance if the Tax Credits aren't extended,
I am actually shocked that Trump supports this since it F's over his base.
Healthcare Premium Tax Credits for low income American Citizens isn't "Free Healthcare for Illegals",

Although they do tend to “stick together”, all the working class Latina/os I know are pissed these people are getting free anything when they have to pay for it.

Yeah Yes.

Healthcare Premium Tax Credits for WORKING AMERICANS isn't "Free Healthcare for illegals".
It also isn't Welfare, it's a Tax Credit for working citizens that are paying part of the premium.
No different that Tax Credits that people get for having children or any other tax credit.
I think it's stupid to punish working American citizens who are trying to be responsible and purchase insurance.
Especially since most of then voted for Trump.
Poor people that don't work get Welfare & vote Democrat,
Poor people that work get the Tax Credit and vote Republican.
Pretty stupid of the Republicans to do away with the credit.

Here is a link so you can become informed & educated on the subject,

When you consider it’s probably a 20 to 30 million person voting block… it starts to make sense!

Health insurance premiums for plans bought over the Affordable Care Act marketplace are estimated to increase 114% if enhanced subsidies expire at year’s end.

Democrats are pushing to extend the enhanced “premium tax credits” as part of a deal to avert a government shutdown on Oct. 1.

About 22 million people receive enhanced subsidies.

Kind of disturbing that 47% of Democrats polled were in favor of shutting down the government over healthcare for illegals.

Not surprising, just disturbing…

A federal shutdown is the absolutely best thing that can happen.....
Afterall, isn't that what "we" voted for???
It's what I voted for! Those corrupt demons in DC want everyone to think that a government shutdown would be a big deal!!! Lol. No. It won't. All we need from the federal government is "essential government functions".
It's both Republicans and Marxist Dems.

Those "temporary" credits that are covered under the CR. That has essentially been approved twice before

Extending them beyond this year should be a separate issue....
