That's the message that Republicans in congress seem to want to send. They are more than happy to spend billions of unconditional dollars to build walls and keep Mexicans out of the country, but when it comes to fighting an actual Virus like Zika that can cause real birth defects in American children they won't spend a dime. Brown Humans? A scourge against this great country. Mosquito's carrying a disease that can shrink your babies skull? Nah, don't worry about that. What's more? South Carolina, one of the states that will likely be most effected by Zika has now made it illegal to abort if you find out your child is suffering from the disease a little too late. Will they help the parents pay the excessive health care costs that arise from having a baby born with the virus though? Nope.
