   Democrats want to offer health care to undocumented immigrants.   
      
   Americans are divided about providing more comprehensive   
   government-backedcoverage to the roughly 11 million undocumented   
   immigrants in the US. Some 59% of Americans say that such coverage   
   should not be available to undocumented immigrants, according to a CNN   
   poll conducted in late June.   
      
   Among those whothink it should be, there’s a big disparity along party   
   lines. Some 66% of Democrats supporting giving government coverage to   
   the undocumented, but only 10% of Republicans feeling the same way.   
      
   The Democrats’ position has given Trump fodder to attack his opponents.   
      
   “How about taking care of American Citizens first!?” he argued on   
   Twitter after the first Democratic debate, in June.
