Undocumented aliens are explicitly prohibited from benefiting from any subsidized health insurance programs created in this bill.
Please see: Title III, Subsection C, Section 347
SEC. 347. NO FEDERAL PAYMENT FOR UNDOCUMENTED ALIENS.
"Nothing in this subtitle shall allow Federal payments for affordability credits on behalf of individuals who are not lawfully present in the United States."
The bill has short term costs, but the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office analysis says that the bill will " yield a net reduction in federal budget deficits of $109 billion over the 2010-2019 period", so if your objections to the bill are deficit related you are being intellectually dishonest. (1.) Contrary to certain misinformation, the bill also explicitly forbids undocumented aliens from receiving federal assistance under the proposed subsidization program. (2.) If you are going to make a claim, use a reference.
