the nonpartisan Congressional Research Service study found that the House health care bill does not restrict illegal immigrants from receiving health care coverage.

House Republican Minority Leader John Boehner amplified the complaint that without proof of citizenship, illegal immigrants could be insured.

"There were two opportunities for House Democrats to make clear that illegal immigrants wouldn't be covered by putting in requirements to show citizenships," he said. "Both of those amendments were, in fact, rejected."

In the Senate, Democrats in the so called "Gang of Six," a group of bipartisan senators on the Senate Finance Committee which is the last panel yet to release its bill, began moving quickly to close the loophole that Wilson helped bring greater attention to.

The above statements would seem to indicate one of two things. He knows nothing about what he is saying or he is lying. I know that the final version of this messed up bill won't be anything like it is now, but from the above statements even the Democrats are rushing to change something that you said he wasn't lying about when he said No Illegals would be covered. I don't agree with the way it was brought up, but at least they now have to do something about it, otherwise they would have left it as it is.
