Hospitals in AZ potentially to require proof of citizenship

[sniper7]

This is the main crux for me. The Feds already don't do anything. How is some hospital admin reporting to them what they already knew supposed to change anything?

The only thing I can think of is to further enhance their state laws in hopes the feds will take notice and take action, or unless they are gearing up towards succession.

It could just be a feel-good as someone mentioned before. It could be part of a bigger plan as well though.

I could only hope they are working toward having state laws that allow them enforcement to get rid of illegals, keep them off their health care and their state funded programs. I am sure there is a fine line the feds will play with them as far as federal money going to the state if they choose to enforce or how hard they enforce laws on the books.

yeah, to me it all comes back to how it is.

When BP knows they have an illegal in custody in a hospital, they let them go already, what's this law gonna change. Even if they did come and pick em up, they would just drive them south, and the illegal would hope right back over the fence, and the dance will start right back over.


To get medical about this (Ha!)

The hospitals, schools, and jobs are just symptoms, fixing them won't cure anything, the real root of the problem lies on the Line and on the Hill.



Too many rich man want cheap labor still, until that is fixed, the problem will exist. There is more than one US company advertising for jobs south of the line, and more than one patch of sand that is left open because of politics.

Stop giving them work and the problem should go away...


That would have worked 20 years ago. Now they have social security numbers belonging to dead people and they have ID's issued by the Mexican consulate that are supposed to be considered valid forms of identification in the state of Colorado. Those 2 things are often good enough to get welfare, unemployment, and etc.

I remember watching a news segment several years ago when I lived in California. The segment talked about benefits to illegal aliens. They did a good chunk of the segment around an illegal immigrant woman who came from Mexico and moved to Oklahoma to be with family. The woman had a disease and required dialysis, the state of Oklahoma refused her dialysis treatments due to the fact that she was an illegal immingrant so she moved to California. If I'm not mistaken the state of California was on the hook to the tune of a couple hundred thousand a year to keep this woman alive. Mind you a woman who has never paid in to the system..

The state of California spends close to if not more than 1 billion dollars annually on benefits to illegal aliens.
