As the Washington Examiner's Philip Klein recently reported: "Under Obamacare, businesses with over 50 workers that employ American citizens without offering them qualifying health insurance could be subject to fines of up to $3,000 per worker. But because newly legalized immigrants wouldn’t be eligible for subsidies on the Obamacare exchanges until after they become citizens – at least 13 years under the Senate bill – businesses could avoid such fines by hiring the new immigrants instead."
Congress has to come up with a way for employers to escape some of the extra costs involved with Obamacare. Here is one way, hire foreigners!

Just because an individual won't be eligible for subsidies on the exchanges doesn't mean he won't count as a worker under the requirement for the employer of over 50 workers to offer health insurance to qualified workers.
