DACA recipients are able to sign up for Obamacare for the first time

When Camila Bortolleto was 9 years old, her parents brought her from Brazil to the U.S.

Bortolleto’s parents are undocumented, but in 2013 she was approved for the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, which allowed her to get a job and, with it, job-based health insurance.

Bortolleto, now 36 and living in Connecticut, left her job at a nonprofit in June, which meant losing her health insurance and leaving her with no other options: DACA recipients have been barred from receiving government-funded health insurance.

That changed Friday, when tens of thousands of DACA recipients became able to sign up for health insurance coverage under the Affordable Care Act for the first time.

The change — which coincided with the first day of the ACA’s open enrollment period — marks a pivotal moment for the more than 535,000 active DACA recipients in the U.S.

That lack of access, experts say, has led to high rates of uninsured among DACA recipients, sometimes referred to as "Dreamers."

In May, the Biden administration finalized a rule that allows DACA recipients to apply for coverage through HealthCare.gov, as well as the state-based marketplaces, starting Nov. 1.
******************************************

So the biden administration wrote a law even though the constitution says, “All legislative powers herein granted shall be vested in a congress of the United State. The SC should void this but they won’t, just like they didn’t void the DACA program itself.

This violates section 1324 title 8 which makes it a federal felony to encourage illegals to live her.

So she is a net drain on the US and should be deported back to Brazil. She has had plenty of time to apply to be a citizen and did not. No tears from me except that we have to pay for this illegal deadbeat in our country.

Why bother to sign up for anything they already get every damned thing free as it is.

Why take a cut in free things.
