Biden to announce free and taxpayer-subsidized health care for 580,000 DACA recipients
American Thinker ^ | 13 Apr, 2023 | Monica Showalter

The camel's nose under the tent is becoming a full free ride now for DACA recipients on health care.

For DACA recipients, U.S. life under Joe Biden just keeps getting better and better.

Here's the latest from the Washington Examiner:

President Joe Biden is reportedly set to expand the health plans available to hundreds of thousands of people who illegally immigrated to the United States as children.

Biden's decision will allow participants in the Obama-era Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA, program to access government-funded health insurance programs such as Medicaid and Obamacare's health insurance exchanges, officials reportedly told the Associated Press. A formal announcement is expected on Thursday.

DACA was announced in 2012 and allows participants to work legally. However, recipients don't have full legal status and are denied access to multiple government benefits given to citizens.

In particular, DACA recipients are disqualified from government-subsidized health insurance because they lack a "lawful presence" in the U.S.

Seems the camel's nose under the tent of the DACA executive order, which was supposed to be a two-year renewable amnesty with work permits alone, has expanded into greater and greater benefits -- and won't be likely to stop.

No. Trump tried to end DACA, it all stems from an Obama executive order. Trump tried to end DACA by rescinding the executive order because, you know, he's also the president and it isn't a law. However a federal judge said he was not allowed to because ... orange man bad. So now anything goes.

These a-hole judges that wanted to stick it to Trump did great harm to the republic and John Roberts, in his zeal to appear non-political, has been the most brazenly political Chief Justice ever by allowing politics and polls to guide what he reviews, allows, and denies. So there is no oversight from above.

It looks like he may be trying to do this through the Department of Health and Human Services.

Well OF COURSE HE IS, since the dims know it will be stopped by House GOP. They ALWAYS want to give away the farm when they can use GOP to stop it and make them look “bad”. Someone needs to put a commercial on TV that shows the difference between what they say they WANT to do but DO NOT DO when they control everything and COULD have done is...

Daca wasn’t a eo, but mere policy. Trump had a half hearted attempt at ending it. Daca is a illegal policy that congress chose not to tell the executive to go to hell. R’s and D’s hate america.

“Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, the government is borrowing roughly $6 billion a day.”

Biden and the Democrats are saying:
“C’mon 7 billion a day!!!”

It should only be difficult for AMERICANS to get affordable healthcare. Our diverse illegal alien foreigners should be given it free of charge.

Let’s go Brandon! FJB!
