That is a Congressional Budget Office number. the highest standard we have here. $6.5 billion for illegals to go on Medicaid and SCHIP? That is a Congressional Budget Office number. You cant convince me that this isnt going to legalize access to health care services for illegals who. if we had the voucher delivered by ICE. the Immigration Custom Enforcement. would be compelled to pick them up and send them back to their own country. Think about that. If we made the couriers for vouchers for SCHIP to be ICE. they would have to come along and say. "Well. okay. heres your voucher. but youre not going to be able to cash it in because I am sending you back home again because that is the law." How bizarre is it to hear the rhetoric coming out of that side of the aisle?
