“AUTOMATIC PROVISION OF MEDICAID BENEFITS. To the extent permitted by federal law and regardless of the nationality of the child, the commission shall ensure a child who is used in the commission of an offense under Section 37.082, Penal Code, is provided Medicaid benefits.“
The bill is actually making it illegal to use children to try to gain refuge. The amendment was added to say that if a child is illegally used for that purpose they will get Medicaid.

1. The bill has not passed the Senate and has not even had a committee vote taken. That is the first step before it can be debated in the full Senate.
2. The bill does not grant anything to illegal aliens per se.
3. The new proposed law says that if a child is used in human trafficking, that child (while here depending on federal government) will get Medicaid. Trafficking under Texas law is bringing someone in for forced labor or sex.
From the way I read this new proposed law, if a child is brought across the border illegally with intent to force the child into the sex trade or forced labor, while the child is here Texas will cover the child under Medicaid.
If it is HB888 that we are discussing, it has nothing to do with medical care or welfare for illegals. It is only for children who are forced across the border as sex slaves or forced labor.
Assuming that is true… That does not make me nearly as good of headlines as saying illegals will now get free medical care and welfare.
Carry on.
