Rochard writes another wrong wall of text.

The reality:


"Obamacare explicitly bars people in the country illegally from its provisions, but a loophole called the ?innovation waiver? allows for states to change portions of the law, as long as they make coverage available to more people and as long as the federal government doesn?t have to pick up the tab, among other requirements. The bill, which would require that a request for a waiver be filed, first must be approved by the state legislature and the governor before the waiver can be considered by the federal government.

Though the California bill does not come with federal subsidies that make health insurance more affordable to low- and middle-income people, critics fear it?s heading that way.
?This is a two-step process: Open the door to the exchanges, but when no one can afford to buy insurance you come back and add the subsidies,? says Ira Mehlman, a spokesman for the Federation for American Immigration Reform. ?This is the first step in another misrepresentation of the Affordable Care Act. It was sold to the American people on the fact that you wouldn?t have to subsidize health care for illegal immigrants.?
