The Affordable Care Act was passed in 2010, but there are over eleven million undocumented immigrants in the country specifically excluded from signing up. A new loophole into the laws shows that youths in The Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program should be eligible through it to Sign up for health care. Because some states have a very high level of undocumented immigrants, it would actually benefit them to provide health insurance. The DACA provides immigrants with a way to stay in the country and work, even pay taxes. These things beg to say that the youths in the program deserve to be treated like at least partial citizens, and they deserve health insurance.
This relates to law-making and immigration reform.
I, a native-born Texan, find it strange not hearing about all the students who are going to see their family in Mexico over the holidays. I have always had an open mind to immigration, and I believe we should prove immigrants with health care.
