House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., on Sunday rejected Senate Democrats' who are claiming they are not seeking to allow illegal immigrants to receive health care as a condition for continuing government funding to end the shutdown.

"As a condition for ending the Democrat shutdown, Democrats want hospitals paid MORE to treat illegal aliens than American citizens — including young pregnant women. That’s not an exaggeration," Johnson wrote on X after his "Meet the Press" appearance. 

"It’s written in black and white — Page 57, Section 2141 of Chuck Schumer’s counterproposal. Republicans made it illegal for Medicaid to reimburse care for illegal aliens at higher rates than for U.S. citizens. Democrats are now demanding to reverse that," he added.

Johnson directed the public to visit Speaker.gov to review the demands Democrats have made during negotiations over the shutdown.
