Senator hits NY's 'very dangerous' plan to give medical licenses to illegals

The Washington Examiner reports:
A top Senate lawmaker and medical doctor on Tuesday ripped New York's new plan to let illegal immigrants become certified doctors and pharmacists, warning that it could lead to greater abuse of opioid prescriptions.

"I think it's a terrible idea to grant licenses to illegal immigrants because doctors, dentists, others are entrusted to prescribe powerful medicines, and that's the point of the bill we're on right now," said Wyoming Republican Sen. John Barrasso during floor debate on the Comprehensive Addiction and Recovery Act of 2016.

"These include these very opioid painkillers that we've been talking about the past few weeks," he added.
The Democrats : looking to have people come to America illegally.
