§1611. Aliens who are not qualified aliens ineligible for Federal public benefits
(a) In general
Notwithstanding any other provision of law and except as provided in subsection (b) of this section, an alien who is not a qualified alien (as defined in section 1641 of this title) is not eligible for any Federal public benefit (as defined in subsection (c) of this section).
(b) Exceptions
(1) Subsection (a) of this section shall not apply with respect to the following Federal public benefits:
(A) Medical assistance under title XIX of the Social Security Act [42 U.S.C. 1396 et seq.] (or any successor program to such title) for care and services that are necessary for the treatment of an emergency medical condition (as defined in section 1903(v)(3) of such Act [42 U.S.C. 1396b(v)(3)]) of the alien involved and are not related to an organ transplant procedure, if the alien involved otherwise meets the eligibility requirements for medical assistance under the State plan approved under such title (other than the requirement of the receipt of aid or assistance under title IV of such Act [42 U.S.C. 601 et seq.], supplemental security income benefits under title XVI of such Act [42 U.S.C. 1381 et seq.], or a State supplementary payment).
HB 3391 is mainly a move by Oregon Democrats against the Trump Administration’s promise to replace the Affordable Care Act. The bill seeks to ensure that health insurance plans in Oregon will be required to cover reproductive health services. Of course abortion is included in this mandate. The fact that Oregon has the most liberal abortion laws in the country, allowing abortion up until birth, makes this move by the democratic controlled Oregon Legislature no surprise. Abortion is not something that should be required on all insurance plans.
