There are very young children with life-threatening illnesses, and only certain hospitals here have the equipment to keep them alive. This isn’t the same as people coming over the southern border. These families came here legally to save their child’s life, but apparently their time is up. How cruel can a president be to send letters informing them that they have 33 days to get out of the US?
Besides personal greed, what is stopping you and all the others like you from sending money to their countries to buy equipment and train doctors?
Do you want to fly all the sick children from Africa here for treatment or would their skin color be too dark to justify that?
I agree, send them packing. All of them. I can't get anything for free so why should they?
Unfortunately, the word is out that they can come here and get a lot of free services. It's human nature to be self-interested, so one can't really blame them - the Democrats are the ones to blame for not understanding human nature and perpetuating such a system.

And how many checks and how much have YOU sent for their care? Or are you just another "all mouth and no action"
There are American citizens needing expensive health care that can't get it...lets take care of our own first. Didn't we have a couple of threads on people dying because they couldn't afford ibsulin? And people dying because they can't afford cancer treatment?
" needing expensive health care" What happened to the AFFORDIBLE Care Act obama and the dems passed?
I am reminded of a story that hardened my heart against these cases. This was MANY years ago -- at least 20 and probably more than 30, I think -- and there was a case of people here illegally from Mexico and their daughter was born with most of his or her brain missing, and the doctors said there was NO chance she would survive for more than a few days, as most. Well, the parents were very religious and insisted that s/he be kept on life support that cost thousands of dollars a day because they were praying for a "miracle". Well, the child did live - for about a month -- and ended up costing the taxpayers I don't know how much because the parents were poor and so, of course, they had no medical insurance and no way they could pay for their daughter's care.
I do feel sorry for those children and their parents, but life is not fair and, unfortunately, infants die every day.
Now, if we are talking about emergency care (like broken limbs) due to a serious car crash or vaccinations, that is entirely different. But spending millions of tax dollars to care for children who are here -- or would be here --illegally? I don't think so.
Thats the measure of trumps character an evil vindictive little coward who takes delight in people suffering.
He feels no empathy. He is an abomination.
I will say, this is a difficult situation. Much needs to be done to alter what has gone on for too long, but what has been created and occurred in recent months is NOT the answer and is unimaginable what others have had to endure and is not how our country would normally operate. Though I feel that change still needs to occur and believe that there are those competing for the next election to create positive change, hoping to do something about this system, that would not allow these current conditions to exist.
It would be good if something could be altered for those from elsewhere to have incentives to remain in their country...though is not happening, but cannot continue for this to fall upon others, endlessly. One thing that is bothersome about it, I hate to say, is how some continue to overpopulate, yet already struggling, making it more difficult on everyone (not being the only ones contributing to this). I would like to see this aspect be able to change. Though compassionate about others and what they experience, I do feel that something needs to be done to not continue endlessly overflooding the country, contributing to issues.
