NFL Legend Hershel Walker Slams Bill that Aims to Give Free Benefits to Migrants

Former NFL superstar Hershel Walker slammed Democrat-controlled California over a proposed bill that would provide undocumented migrants with free healthcare benefits. As Fox News reports:

Former NFL running back Herschel Walker on Monday slammed California over a proposed bill that would give healthcare benefits to some illegal immigrants who live in the state.

Under an agreement between Gov. Gavin Newsom and Democrat lawmakers in the state legislature, low-income adults between the ages of 19 and 25 living in the state illegally would be eligible for California’s Medicaid program, known as Medi-Cal.

Walker, a former Pro Bowler who played 12 seasons in the NFL, tweeted his disapproval with the plan.

Not to point fingers at California, but why would you give free healthcare to illegal immigrants when your streets are littered with homeless legal residents, trash, and tents. California is a beauitful place, so let’s keep it that way. @CNN @FOX4 @NBCNews @DonaldJTrumpJr

California officials have estimated the benefits would be available to about 90,000 low-income illegal immigrants at a cost of $98 million per year.

The sports legend has been a long time support of President Trump and his MAGA agenda.
