American's Healthcare Hijacked By Illegals

Schumer and company continue to conflate, obfuscate, and outright deny the brutal impact the healthcare handouts to illegal aliens has had on the American people. Now utilizing their socialist EBT voting base as leverage in a game of sociopathic chicken. But the simple numbers don’t lie, illegal immigrants accounted for $23 billion in federal medical expenditures annually while American citizens waited in ER purgatory for basic care with little to no insurance. A 2024 FAIR study, using CMS and Census data, pegs the yearly cost of Medicaid, CHIP, and emergency room write offs for 15.4 million illegal immigrants at $8,776 per head. Tied to a broader $150.7 billion net fiscal burden from illegal immigration since 2021. Meanwhile, 27.1 million U.S. citizens remain uninsured, and 44% of working age adults skip needed medical care because of cost. Texas alone spent $1.5 billion on uncompensated care. Illegal immigrants were a major driver. California’s Medi-Cal expansion to 700,000 undocumented adults cost $4 billion in 2024. That was more than the state’s $3.8 billion prison healthcare budget. Meanwhile, 1.4 million Californians lost coverage during the redetermination process through early 2024. New York City’s public hospitals managed $1.47 billion in migrant expenditures in FY 2023, contributing to system wide strains that overwhelmed facilities like Bellevue with nearly 30,000 migrant visits. Reports from border states highlighted ER overcrowding, with illegal immigrant encounters up over 300% since 2021 per CBP data, ballooning capacity issues where hospitals report operating near or above limits. Meanwhile, wait times for U.S. veterans at VA facilities average 22 days for primary care, still too long amid a surge in demand. The math is merciless and the gaslighting is infuriating. Every dollar diverted to illegal immigrant healthcare is a dialysis treatment denied to a diabetic grandma in Appalachia. Congress allocated $16 billion in disproportionate share hospital payments to safety net systems strained by non citizens, while the 46 million Americans in rural populations continue to clamour for healthcare that never comes. The blood money trail leads straight to the marble halls of power. Cerberus Capital, Apollo Global, Leonard Green, and GTCR have turned the migrant healthcare crisis into a billion dollar extraction machine, siphoning $300 million a year from ICE detention contracts. These vultures dumped $4.41 million into DC lobbying in 2025 alone, 40% to Democrats to keep the bipartisan spigot open, ensuring every illegal alien ER dump off is a taxpayer funded jackpot. The infrastructure? A permanent profit pipeline from the border to the boardroom, your dialysis denied, their dividends delivered. Don't look now, your healthcare has been hijacked in broad daylight.
