Biden Grants 100,000 DACA Recipients Obamacare Access Starting This Year
May 3, 2024, 02:16 PM
President Joe Biden has implemented a new policy that allows DACA recipients, commonly referred to as 'Dreamers', to access health insurance through the Affordable Care Act (ACA). This change will enable approximately 100,000 undocumented immigrants who were brought to the U.S. as children to receive health care coverage, including taxpayer subsidies for insurance on the ACA's markets. The policy, which redefines the legal qualifications for health care access under Obamacare, is set to take effect this year. Biden stated, 'Today, my Administration is expanding affordable, quality health care coverage to Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) recipients.' This move has been praised by various lawmakers and advocates who have long urged for health care access for DACA recipients, highlighting their contributions to the economy and their status as taxpayers.
