Perhaps you should try reading the actual proposals rather than just the GOP talking points.
The Obama proposal doesn't apply to illegals.
The House bill doesn't provide taxpayer funded subsidies to illegals.
About the only way illegals could get more free health benefits with this reform is by expanding Medicaid through existing law (the Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act) signed by
Ronald Reagan in 1986.
