Obama’s Plan to Bring Non-American Ebola Patients to US Will Cost $300,000 PER PATIENT
FOX News obtained a State Department memo detailing the Obama Administration’s plans on transferring non-citizen African Ebola patients to the United States for treatment.
** The plan will cost American taxpayers approximately $300,000 per patient.
–Not including the $2,000 to MEDEVAC the patients to America.
House Judiciary Chairman Bob Goodlatte (R-VA) told reporters about the memo on Monday. The White House denied it existed. Today FOX News obtained a copy of the memo.
FOX News has more on the State Department Ebola memo.
The “purpose” of the memo states: “Come to an agreed State Department position on the extent to which non-U.S. citizens will be admitted to the United States for treatment of Ebola Virus Disease.”
The document goes on to discuss – and advocate for — devising such a plan. The memo recommends that “State and DHS devise a system for expeditious parole of Ebola-infected non-citizens into the United States as long as they are otherwise eligible for medical evacuation from the Ebola affected countries and for entry into the United States.”
Explaining that recommendation, the memo says the U.S., for instance, has an “obligation” to help non-citizen employees of U.S. agencies and U.S.-based private firms. It says the U.S. “needs to show leadership and act as we are asking others to act by admitting certain non-citizens into the country for medical treatment for Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) during the Ebola crisis.”
The memo was obtained after House Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte, R-Va., wrote to Secretary of State John Kerry and Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson a week ago asking if either department was formulating a plan to allow non-U.S. citizens with Ebola to come to the U.S. for medical treatment.
Goodlatte also told Fox News Monday night that his office had received “information from within the administration” that such plans were being developed.
Wild Thing’s comment…….
I swear Obama wants to kill Americans and he is paying for it with our tax dollars.
What the Hell is this jerkwad trying to do to this nation?
Even the Pentagon brass realizes Caesar is Looney Tunes because they are quarantining their own soldiers in Vincenzo Italy… VOTE in 6 days!
obama hates America and Americans. He seems to not care what wreakage he leaves behind as he pushes his agenda of favoring America’s enemies and dangers over the health of America. Maybe his muslim self has a bit of suicide in it and he figures his jihadi reward will be a 72 hole golf course.
