(AP …finalized a new policy Friday giving illegal immigrant “Dreamers” here under the DACA program full access to Obamacare, including taxpayer subsidies to buy insurance on the Affordable Care Act’s markets.
“Dreamers are our neighbors and friends; they are students, teachers, social workers, doctors, and nurses. More importantly, they are fellow Americans,” he said.There are roughly 600,000 people enrolled in the DACA program, but many of them already have insurance coverage through their jobs, some qualify for Medicaid under states that have expanded coverage to illegal immigrants, and others will decline to sign up.
DACA grants a stay of deportation to illegal immigrants who arrived in the U.S. under age 16 and were under age 31 when the policy was announced. Most of those who qualify were never high targets for deportation anyway, so the real benefit to DACA is the work permit and taxpayer benefits that come with the program.
