GOP Misleads on Healthcare Amid Shutdown | JQJO

Congressional Republicans and Donald Trump are propagating misleading claims that Democrats aim to provide "free healthcare for illegals" amid a government shutdown. Democrats and healthcare experts refute these allegations, stating federal law prohibits healthcare for undocumented immigrants. The debate centers on proposed funding bills, with Republicans accusing Democrats of prioritizing "illegal aliens" over Americans, while Democrats assert Republicans are lying to shut down the government and are instead trying to reverse cuts to federally funded health coverage for lawfully present immigrants and extend ACA subsidies.
