Really, it is hard to post these absurd stories. But unless they get posted, no one knows. When is the Media going to report this outrageous spending of our money? They talk about raising our taxes. Not one dime until we stop this nonsense.
CNSNews.com asked HRSA if there were any controls that prevented federal funds from paying for illegal immigrants’ health care. Spokeswoman Judy Andrews said that grant recipients did not collect immigration information.
“Health centers do not, as a matter of routine practice, ask about or collect data on citizenship or other matters not related to the treatment needs of the patients seeking health services at the center,” Andrews said.
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) announced it has awarded approximately $8.5 million in money from the ObamaCare health reform law to 25 new Migrant Health Centers designed to target the migrant farm worker population – money that may end up paying for free health care for illegal immigrants.
The money is part of $28.8 million in ObamaCare funds from the New Access Point grant program for community health centers.
The $8.5 million in ObamaCare funds will go toward opening new Migrant Health Centers, which focus on migrant farm workers who are poor or without health insurance.More at CNS News

Wow! Millions of more reasons to vote this extreme statist out of office. You do have to admit, however, that Judy Andrews gave a pretty slick answer to that pointed question.
