Biden Stands Up For Illegals While Americans Suffer


Sen. Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee, alongside Senators Mike Lee, J.D. Vance, and Kevin Cramer, has vehemently opposed the Biden administration’s proposal to extend Obamacare coverage to over 100,000 undocumented migrants shielded under the 2012 DACA initiative. Their collective dissent, articulated in a joint letter addressed to Department of Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra, underscores a deep-seated concern regarding the economic ramifications and fairness of such a policy shift.

In their missive, Blackburn and her counterparts decry what they perceive as the adverse effects of President Biden’s economic policies. They point to rising inflation, sluggish job growth, and a notable increase in foreign-born labor force participation, positing that these factors exacerbate the financial strain on American taxpayers. The senators contend that burdening already struggling taxpayers with the healthcare expenses of undocumented immigrants is both inequitable and unsustainable.

The Biden administration’s recent announcement granting certain DACA beneficiaries access to federally managed health insurance has further fueled the senators’ disapproval. This decision is anticipated to facilitate enrollment of approximately 100,000 previously uninsured DACA recipients in health insurance programs administered by the federal government. Blackburn and her colleagues argue that such a move diverts attention from pressing issues at the border, including the welfare of unaccompanied migrant minors.

Of particular concern to the senators is the financial implications of extending healthcare coverage to DACA recipients. They question the precise number of immigrants eligible for enrollment, the associated cost to taxpayers, and whether coverage extends to family members residing in the country illegally. Moreover, they seek clarification on the administration’s intent regarding healthcare provisions for the broader undocumented population and demand accountability through congressional testimony and legal justification for the proposed policy shift.

The senators’ stance resonates against the backdrop of public sentiment, as immigration ranks among the electorate’s foremost concerns leading up to the presidential elections. This sentiment underscores the significance of addressing immigration policy in a manner that aligns with the welfare of both American citizens and immigrants alike, while also acknowledging the economic realities facing the nation.
