In my state (MO) illegals are able to receive medicaid during their pregnancy. This shouldn’t be allowed to happen. I have met several women who receive medicaid as well as Food-stamps for their American born children and those that aren’t. Missouri is supposed to be a republican state yet they’re giving benefits to those without the legal specifications. I have helped Spanish speakers fill out DFS documents that clearly that not having a valid SSN does NOT disqualify you from receiving benefits. Get rid of this and make it illegal to give benefits to illegals

I think the wording in this should be altered to say no more health care for illegals. It would get a lot more visibility if you said that.
Many I think feel the same but I scrolled several times thinking I was not going to read this.
Hospitals are legally required to provide emergency care, no matter the immigration status. BUT, the illegals and/or their family/relatives should be responsible for cost, not the US. ALSO, if the family/relative of the illegals refuse to take care of the sick illegal, that family SHOULD be required by law to take in the illegal, whether they want to or not. I’ve witnessed too many illegals living in hospitals because no one will take them in, even their own country/embassy.
