A recent audit has uncovered significant issues with health care programs for non-citizens in Illinois, including thousands of improper enrollments and substantial cost overruns. The findings have led to calls for the immediate shutdown of these programs to safeguard taxpayer money.

The audit revealed that many individuals were improperly enrolled in the state's health care program for non-citizens. Furthermore, the costs associated with these programs were vastly underestimated, raising concerns about financial management and oversight.
