There’s a big difference between EMTALA expenses and putting illegals on Medicaid rolls.

Trump should just send ICE to follow the claims. Make a claim and you get sent packing

FIRE HER!!!!

If they weren't hiding behind her skirts, they could have simply rejected her recommendation. She has no actual power except the spinelessness of too many in the GOPe.

i can already think of two solutions:

1. verify their citizenship status at the hospital. once their care is complete, ICE can pick them up and deport them.

2. stick the entire bill on them. send collections at them. make life in the US impossible for them.

Please clarify this for me.

So 56 Senators voted to kick off the illegals, and 44 voted to keep them, correct?

And it didn’t pass bc not enough senators voted yes?

And this counts bc some unelected lady says it counts?

Vance may have allowed the vote to get 44 Democrats on record supporting Medicare for illegals.


Democrats don’t give a damn that their reps push for it. They actively support it.

Why was this parliamentarian not replaced as soon as the Senate was majority Republican, why isn't she being replaced right now?


It was by design. She was meant to thwart some of the measures of BBB and provide some cover for Thune and his bitches. Only those who really delve into the process understands what happened here and they will continue to win elections.

This was Thune for not calling to vote to override her.

Simple majority to over ride her.

Thune is in on it! There’s a reason tTurtle anointed him. He was put in place to obstruct Trump just like McConnell did before he went into Freeze Frame mode.

In practice but not in principle.

I always think it’s funny when people piss and moan about sOciALizED hEALtHcARe but don’t talk about EMTALA

Bro you basically already have it, but insurance companies are shaving % off the re-distribution

We could repeal EMTALA for illegals, that would be one hell of an incentive for them to self-deport.
