The Center for Health and Health Care in Schools (CHHCS) News Alerts -- March
28, 2006
Report Cites Health Status of Children in Immigrant Families:
Children who are born in the United States to noncitizen parents, foreign-born
children with noncitizen parents, and foreign-born children who are naturalized
citizens are all likely to have limited access to health insurance and health
care, according to a research report in the April 2006 issue of the American
Journal of Public Health.
http://www.healthinschools.org
Senate Committee Would Allow Aid to Illegal Immigrants:
The U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee today declined to go along with a House bill
that would make it a criminal offense to provide food, shelter, medical care, or
counseling to illegal immigrants. The House of Representatives voted in December
to make offers of non-emergency aid a felony, an action that has provoked
protests by immigrant and advocacy groups around the country.
