Since 2012, more than 800,000 people with DACA protections have not received ACA coverage, according to the Center for Law and Social Policy, a national nonprofit advocating for people with low incomes.
“Access to healthcare is a human right, and immigrants deserve the same access to it as everyone else,” the nonprofit said in a news release. “We are ready to work with the Biden Administration on outreach to implement this new rule.”
