Some quotes by him on this:

Voted NO on reporting illegal aliens who receive hospital treatment.

Vote to pass the bill that would require hospitals to gather and report information on possible illegal aliens before hospitals can be reimbursed for treating them. The bill would also make employers liable for the reimbursements if an undocumented employee seeks medical attention, unless the employer meets particular conditions for exemption. The bill would specify that hospitals aren't required to provide care to undocumented aliens if they can be transported to their home country without a significant chance of worsening their condition.

He's just like McPain only LESS experienced. He has no proven track record other than another career political hack that gets nothing done.

Voted NO on reporting illegal aliens who receive hospital treatment. (May 2004)

I do not necessarily disagree with this vote if it was limited to emergency treatment, and not to anything elective.

Call me a bleeding heart lib for it, but I would rather not have the illegals dead because they did not get some emergency treatment for fear of getting reported.

Structuring it to report them if they did not PAY for the emergency treatment if full would be a much better structure in my humble opinion.
