Health care is not a "human right." It is not a constitutional right. The court ruled: "Obviously, direct control of medical practice in the states is beyond the power of the federal government." If 5% of the population is without insurance and one out of 5 people are illegal, why would there be a big push to legislate an unconstitutional agenda like national health care? NAFTA

What is NAFTAs’ Chapter 11 and how does it work? It allows investors from one NAFTA country to sue the government of another NAFTA country. Example: Mexican Truckers File $6 Billion Claim Against U.S.A. in NAFTA Fight in April. Companies are seeking $6 billion in damages from the U.S. government because of Washington's refusal to allow Mexican trucks to carry cargo over U.S. roads.

On March 23, 2005 NAFTA’s ‘three amigos’ meet. They had a discussion about actively promoting a deeper integration (Illegal migrating & open borders) agenda for North America. “Given the potential and the urgent need to expand the five principles of universality, ... to all in North America, the three leaders must commit to a continental strategy for health care.”

What happens if we close our borders or stop the illegal health plan? We a NAFTA country get sued by Mexico a NAFTA country. It’s about trade and domination. Some in Congress and the President have a deadline to turn our country into part of a North American Union, their moving fast that’s why the Czars. The emphasis on RACE is a tactical maneuver (divide and conquer). Congress, feel we lost site of our Republic, that is why the word democracy is use so much (another tactical maneuver). Czars can’t exist in a Republic, they would have no oversight / checks & balances but they can exist in a democracy.

If Congress and the President cared about our health so much they would vote for their health plan (a private plan) to be used by all or at least the 5% of US Citizens who have no insurance. Instead Congress and the President will be exempt.

Demand Congress withdraw from NAFTA. There is a 6 month withdrawal section in NAFTA. No Czars that is what Congress is for. Our Republic is governed by the U.S. Constitutional and We The People not Congress, Presidents, or Czars. We hired them to work for us. Congress has decided that what we need & what is good for us, is a form of congressional child care for U. S. Citizens. That needs to stop now!

I support NumbersUSA, oppose illegal immigration, AND I support health care reform. I believe we should have single-payer "Medicare" for all, because the health insurance companies are literally killing us: they deny coverage, find "pre-existing" conditions after we get sick, raised by rates 40% last year alone, and deny us coverage to maximize their profits. While I want single-payer for every citizen, I'll put up with Obama's plan if it includes the public option. Otherwise, I don't want them to pass any bill. Now I'm also opposed to illegal immigration and don't want them covered. But I don't want this angle on the healthcare problem to derail health care reform for the rest of us, and it might. So I'm not convinced that I want to fight against coverage of the illegals if it means the whole bill collapses. My strategy would be pass healthcare reform, with the law stating it's only for citizens and legal immigrants (resident aliens, etc.), BUT FIGHT THE FIGHT AGAINST ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION separately, as NumbersUSA has been doing so far. Fight for E-Verify, SAFE, and other legislation. From my perspective, even if health care passes and all the illegals get to use it, if we make progress through E-Verify and other laws that start to push back illegal aliens to their own countries, then all the problems and costs of illegal aliens get solved that way, including their cost to healthcare. Do we really want no healthcare reform for citizens just because we don't want illegals to take advantage of it too? Final point, we are already paying for illegals in the healthcare system, in hospital emergency rooms that gets shifted to my monthly Blue Cross payments. So let's fight illegal aliens without killing the health reform that is driving every American to the poor house.

I think Nancy Pelosi is a DESPICABLE HUMAN BEING. She is a real disgrace!

Is there a way we can have her removed from her position of Speaker of the House! I feel she needs to be thrown out and replaced immediately!

Why don't the American people have a right to vote for the Speaker of the House.

FED UP WITH PELOSI!!

I think we need to send our REPs to these townhall meetings and ask the tough questions.

1. Is there any part of the bill that allows illegal immigrants to have free healthcare?

2. Is there any part of the bill that allows illegal immigrants to become US citizens "the easy way"

3. Are there tort changes in the bill?

I attended a Town Hall meeting held by Democrat Rep Niki Tsongas (Massachusetts) yesterday. She claimed at least twice, illegals will not receive health care benefits paid with "Federal Dollars". At the same time she did not agree or deny Foreign Nationals will receive free health care, if they are here legally........

NumbersUSA Moderator: Very few, if any, Members of Congress will publicly admit that the health care bill will cover illegal aliens. But if they truly want to keep illegal aliens from benefiting, they'll support the addition of a verification mechanism into the bill.

Your comments and facts are right on. I support what you are doing about this. The only other thing I wish to relate to this is that people should remember their history. Remember the Roman Empire and what happen with it. When government starts to throw money at the masses and provide the Circus, watch out, we are starting to decline and someone else will take the lead

Illegal aliens are in play because Democrats see them as their next big voting block (and because a few Republicans view them in the same way). Legislation based upon morality and the best interests of America went out the window a long time ago! If Congress cared at all about the AMERICAN people they would have enforced the laws they passed on illegal aliens 40 years ago. That alone would have had a dramatic positive impact on the economy, health care, education, and virtually every "safety net" program maintained in this country. If they want in, let them come in the right way!

If your Congressman or Senator has supported giving illegal aliens benefits and rights, vote against them - no matter what else you like about them. If you don't, this problem will not only go unresolved - it will destroy the greatest country in the history world.

One other thing. If you are considering voting against an elected official because of his or her failure to take a stand against illegals, you will probably find a number of other reasons to vote against him that also are hurting America! Bailouts, bad health care legislation, Cap and Trade, etc. Those things all seem to be part of the mentality of a representative who is more concerned about their job than they are abourt their country.

Stop giving illegal aliens health care and SSA check for
expecting mothers giving birth for SSA check here inthe USA

The problem is that the lack of verification for illegals in the various house bills for free or highly subsidized illegal alien health care is just the back door in case the administration fails to push through the Comprehensive Immigration and  Amnesty bill the Dems are working on.

My theory is that this bill is ready, but put on the shelf until the health care is in place.

NumbersUSA Moderator: A news report today stated that Sen. Schumer will likely outline a plan just after the summer recess - or propose a bill altogether.

If what I keep hearing about health care for all Americans except for the Federal government is true, then illegals most likely will go home for the care, followed by many Americans who won't get the care they do today.

Let’s just kill the current bill, since it is so bad for everyone except for the politicians and start over doing it right without the political garbage that it contains.

Our telephone rang. It was my representative from Congress saying the town hall meeting was beginning and press 2 if you want to be called on. I was never called on, My question was asked by another caller. Why will illegals being covered in Health Bill? Representative stated health bill will cover illegals but felt coverage shouldn't be ongoing and ongoing. And he continued all countries do this, and would be a shame not to. WHAAAT? WHAAAA! Only 15 callers were allowed to speak and then time was over. Do you think tough constituents writing in were not asked for their comments?

NumbersUSA Moderator: Sounds like callers were cut off after asking their question - no opportunity to retort to such an idiotic position on the part of the representative. Willing to potentially destroy the entire health plan due to billions and billions that will be lost to people who should not even be in the country. It's certainly possible that they screen the callers to eliminate the constituents that write in. The office also may call the questioners beforehand and then select only individuals that seem friendly on the phone to ask the questions.

This website, Conservatives for Patients Rights, lists the upcoming town hall meetings ("town hells") for congressional reps:

I find it disturbing that the Democratic leadership is determined to pass a bill that will allow illegal aliens to fraudulently acquire government benefits, that they expect them to do so, and that they want to provide amnesty for this class of people that they know will think nothing of committing major fraud.

Prominent Democrats lie about providing subsidized health care for illegal aliens in the Health Care Reform bill. Prominent Republicans lie about other provisions. This dishonesty poisons the debate about a critical issue and shows contempt for democracy and for the American people. Asked at the end of the Constitutional Congress what kind of government we were getting, Benjamin Franklin said, "A Republic, if you can keep it." If we don't hold the parties we support to the truth, we are a rabble, and we risk losing our republic.

I saw a disgusting example of how we're being lied to in this hc bill in a live Congressional TV show the other night: Sen. Deal was talking about his resolution to ensure illegals are not covered, (as stated in the bill). Reid let him talk and then added that if the resolution was adopted it would prevent some 'poor legal citizens' from getting coverage. The reasons he gave were they might not have a passport or be able to find their birth cert. What?? Anyone can get a copy of their bc (except maybe Barry). If the incentive is there (free healthcare), they'll get it. So because Harry thinks a few 'poor citizens' will be penalized, he wants to open up the healthcare system to millions of illegals that we, the taxpaying citizens, will pay for. Not on my watch! We really need to fight this! I can see right through him (he's 'transparent').

Has anyone tried to write to Nancy Pelosi? She likes to ignore those who are not in her district - I called her office and told her aid that I PAY her SALARY and that as the Speaker of the House she DOES have to listen to me. Her aid was astonished but said they would pass the message along.

I encourage everyone to call her office/s and state the same - Pelosi is trying to ignore us if we aren't in her District - it's time to get her to listen and realize as the Speaker WE ARE ALL in HER district.

Its called "bait and hook"

Businesses use this ploy to get consumers into the store then claim they ran out of the sale item, but higher priced alternatives are plentiful.

Now the open border anarchist portion of our government is using the same scam? Promise us the following in part:

"...Momentum appears to be growing for legislation that would require all employers, not just federal contractors, to use the E-Verify system to confirm that their employees are eligible to work in the U.S...."

But only after amnesty is granted with their Criminal Immigration Reform bill; allowing chain migration, anchor babies in like groves for health care, schools, etc, etc budget deficits destroying America more and more. Even far worse than today's overpopulation carnage.

I urge all of you to protest at the top of your lungs at all Town Hall meetings of your Members of Congress this month.

If anyone can tell me where this is then I will go if I am not working. Work here has been slow for me. I have the time to help fight this.

NumbersUSA Moderator: Craig, your Congresswoman is Barbara Lee and her events schedule does not currently list any events for the August recess. That doesn't seem right. She's got to have at least one town hall during the recess. Please call her Oakland District Office at (510) 763-0370 to inquire.

And let me explain how I found her events list and phone number. I went to www.house.gov and in the upper left corner I typed in the zip+4. The website then informed me that Barbara Lee is the Member of Congress for that zip code. I clicked on her name to get to her official congressional website. I then put the mouse over her menu header "California's 9th District" and the 4th option down was "Events Calendar."
