By doing so we may thus screen out those ineligibles that could draw benefits from the plan which would normally go to our own citizens. Before we implement a new health care plan. we should take this opportunity to sharpen the distinction between citizens and resident aliens entitled to universal coverage and those who have no legal right to be in this country. Illegal aliens should rightfully be excluded from that coverage. If ones initial entry into the plan is through an employer. the employer already has responsibility to verify ones legal status. If ones entry into the plan is through an alliance. then the same obligation should apply to the alliance.
