Trump administration deporting critically ill children

That's seven years old. What has changed since them?

 

Can you cite a source for this?

I know that I at least personally donate far more than most of my conservative friends to charities.

 

Post 250 I did

 

The cite is six years old.

 

So? Nothing’s changed. There are numerous studies on this.

If you can find something that has changed provide it. If not face it, libs are selfish and greedy and uncaring

 

No one has any idea if nothing has changed. Only one study has been posted, not numerous.

 

Just saw this.... Of course, I need to read what 'partially reverses' means, but it sounds like a step in the right direction.

With this administration, I know that's just a pipe dream however.

 

Interesting comment on the original article:


This is a sad case, but an oversimplification of the current system as it exists for care for millions of illegal immigrants. As a medical provider, I have seen innumerable cases of illegal immigrants who fly over on a pretense tourist visa specifically to get cancer care because it's free if you show up to a hospital. These patients end up getting chemotherapy that cost millions of dollars and are enrolled onto state sponsored medical insurance indefinitely. As a physician I treat all these patients because it is my duty. But I frequently ask if this is equitable system whereby poorer or middle class US citizens have the burden of paying in part or a total of their care while illegal immigrants cheat the system and get care free. As a legal immigrant with sick family members in my native country, is it right for me to fly them here on a tourist visa for treatment not available at home. I wish NYT articles were more evidence based, bigger picture discussions than tear jerking articles, which I see too often in reporting on issues of illegal immigration. As I read the commentary by NYT readers, I also see more emotions displayed than true discussion, and wonder how many actually know the bigger picture and reality of the burden of providing health care to the >11 million illegal immigrants, as is also the case in our school systems (previously reported by the NYT.

 

I have to know. What the hell are critically ill children (plural) doing migrating in the first place?

 

For free medical care.

 

You clearly have not read the OP and the cites that go with it.
