Obamacare Recruiting Illegal Aliens To Sign Up



Joe Wilson Was Right
Obamacare California Recruits Illegal Aliens


In 2009, Rep. Joe Wilson (R-SC) apologized profusely to the White House for shouting, “You lie!” as President Barack Obama told Congress that Obamacare would not cover illegal immigrants.

Now it would appear that the White House owes Wilson an apology, as Covered California – the flagship of state Obamacare exchanges – is recruiting illegal (“undocumented”) immigrants to sign up for the program, regardless of their eligibility.


The Covered California website includes a special page entitled: “No temas si eres indocumentado/a y quieres inscribir a tu familia en un seguro médico” (“Fear not if you are undocumented and want to enroll your family in health insurance”) reports Breitbart News.

The website goes on to explain that information shared with Obamacare cannot be shared with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). It does not explicitly warn that illegal aliens are ineligible.

“According to the laws and implementing regulations,” the website says, “the information provided by individuals for coverage can not be used for purposes other than ensuring the efficient functioning of the insurance market ( Covered California) or administration of the program, or to verify certain eligibility determinations including verification of the immigration status of these people.”
