Minnesota Democrats are doubling down on their radical agenda, pledging to “fight until the very end” to provide free health care to illegal immigrants, on the backs of hardworking taxpayers. As everyday Minnesotans struggle with rising premiums, longer wait times, and an overstretched health care system, progressive lawmakers are prioritizing illegal immigrants over legal residents.
Protesters held signs with messages such as “We Stand with Immigrants” and “Empathy: Good Government’s Superpower!” They also read anonymous stories from individuals who received life-saving treatment or medication through MinnesotaCare. This state program began offering coverage to low-income individuals not eligible for Medicaid starting January 1.
Democratic State Sen. Alice Mann argued that Republicans were willing to cause a government shutdown in Minnesota simply to eliminate free healthcare for 20,000 people.
