Donated organs should go to US residents before illegal immigrants, says new GOP bill

Rep. Bill Posey, R-Fla., has introduced legislation that would give legal U.S. residents preferred status over illegal immigrants when it comes to receiving donated organs.

Posey's bill, which was filed on Friday, would amend the Public Health Service Act to "give preference to individuals who are lawfully present in the United States over individuals who are unlawfully present in the United States."

An aide to Posey said that means illegal residents could still apply to receive donated organs, but "will not receive organs until all legal residents have been satisfied."

There will be lots of tears and hand wringing over this one if it passes (which it won't).

We have been catering to illegals for years and most people consider them cheap labor. I just don't get it.

Illegal is against the law, so let them die! There are good working white folks that deserve these organs, not a bunch of illegals.

Nothing said about black folks 7:30. Myself I like people, that covers any breathing person and some animals. What I don't like, is illegal people. Please get that in your head. I obey our laws, why wouldn't a squatter? I'm tired of paying their way, I have my family to support legally.
