Dreamers is a term frequently used to refer to members of DACA, an Obama-era program that allows illegal immigrants who entered the country as children to be protected from deportation.
The Biden-Harris Administration is committed to providing Dreamers the opportunities and support they need succeed. Today President Biden is announcing a plan to expand health coverage for DACA recipients,” a release on the White House’s web site says.

“The Department of Health and Human Services will shortly propose a rule amending the definition of “lawful presence,” for purposes of Medicaid and Affordable Care Act coverage, to include DACA recipients.”
The release does not include information on how much the new program is expected to cost taxpayers.

All part of the Authoritarian Left’s plan to take apart Trad America piece by piece.
No limit to the quest for votes and the destruction of America by Bydone.
Expel all.
This is why so many conservative Americans dislike the democrats…giving away what is rightfully only for American citizens to others who have not pasig into our system. Shame on them all!
It’s the plan of the demos to discourage the responsible and reward the clueless and lazy.
I have no doubt any longer that Democrats are out to destroy America & Americans with it.
Hemoraging more cash.
QUIT PAYING TAXES. I WONDER WHAT WOULD HAPPEN THEN.
Ask any migrant -Nothing.
NO & why we lose OUR benefits,.
MORE BS, you stupid moron
POS at work American Citizens last. Impeachment is overdue.
This country cannot afford this!!! Impeach Biden now!!!
Why don’t we just give the whole country to the illegals? Would that satisfy that POS in the White House? Can’t wait until the elections to get him out…………
I don’t understand any of this. All – ALL – monetary laws must come from the House. Biden just can’t give crap away t anyone he wants.
Taxpayer money going to help people that break the law to come here. To me it should not even be legal for the govt to do this
My tax dollars should not and will not be used to incentivise criminal illegal aliens. This is so absurdly unconstitutional, I am at a loss of words. God help us and rid the U.S. of A. of the evil that is the democratic party and Biden/Obama administration.
OK SHIRLY
Wtf!! How is that idiot still the president? Trump gets sued for a fart from 10 years ago, while that brainless tool is tanking our country!! How is it there’s so many brainless liberals out there? Think they would have walked in front of a bus by now.. or hopefully they will very soon!! Tools!!
Conservatives said this would happen and all the Democrats lied and said it would never happen. The Democrat party does not care about Americans, women who are born with female parts, fentanyl, or the working people whose jobs are being taken by illegal aliens.
Since when did fetid congress cede the power of the purse to Fuhrer Biden?!
Fuhrer Biden has simply turned our democracy into a fascist dictatorship.
Why? If any taxpayer money is spent on them it should be a one way ticket out of the USA
WHO IS SURPRISED? BIDEN IS A CCP SHILL BENT ON DESTROYING AMERICA. I NEVER THOUGHT I’D LIVE TO SEE THE DEATH RATTLE OF AMERICA
HOW ABOUT THE DEATH RATTLE OF BIDEN
The upside to this story is that they had to admit that there’s a bunch of illegals, but 700,000 is how many came in last three months. Remember that for 15 years they claimed there were 11 million and that number never changed. We’re schmucks!
ILLEGAL, look that up and see if it means going against laws! They are not entitled to ANY handouts from anyone in this country! If they are not citizens then they should be deported instead of giving them gifts! They should get no support except for deportation back to their country of origin!
What is taking so long to impeach this pathetic president.
Why should LEGALLY born Americans have to pay for the illegals medical care? This is OUR country, they are here illegally. We couldn’t go to their countries and get free medical care and government assistance! In fact, if we entered their countries illegally, we would be arrested and jailed. The same should happen here. We need to take care of OUR people first, our veterans , our elderly, our poor, NOT the illegals!
and the people who worked and paid in get NOTHING and illegals just walk in and get it DREAMERS well some of us are dreamers also and still get squat
biden does NOT care for he will NOT be paying taxes
DACA members were brought to America as young children. They were raised here, learned English, attended our schools, and are every bit American. I have long supported granting DACA members a pathway to citizenship. That being said, America is not supposed to be ruled by a Dictator. Particularly one like Biden who is compromised by China. The President does not have the power and authority to make LAW! Where are the calls for his arrest and prosecution for treason?
Cost taxpayers? Bribden like Obama like most Demonrats don’t care how much it costs, just print more, if it lowers what the dollar is worth so what just print more! Or borrow more from China and Russia. The Two of them along with Gates, Clinton’s, and more, with Soros leading the band do not care if they destroy freedom and America ( as they push Around the world ) for the NWO to succeed, they want open borders, ” One World Government, and One World Leader ” their supporters are so brainwashed, they do not see this is almost the same plan laid out in NAZI Germany ! Wle should thank each and every voter than pulled the handle in favor of any Demonrat, for they have helped to end the United States once and for all !
Excuse me…..Is that even legal for him to be the decider on a national policy approved by House and Senate?????….If it is we are in more deep doo doo and this reprobate and his monkeee staff are demanding we go down the Garden path because they say so…..That is more Jackass Krap……We the voters and taxpayers have say by representation and intend to use it….
What?!!! My daughter, who is an American citizen born in America to born in America parents cannot get ObamaCare and you are going to just give it to illegals?!!! My daughter works her a** off to make ends meet- she is not a ‘free loader’!! How is this fair?!!
Biden has forgotten American citizens while becoming the President for illegal aliens!
Make these programs go broke faster is the Democrat socialist way. There are not enough “rich people” to pay for them so Democrats take money from where most of it is—-namely the middle class. Get ready for the so-called middle class to shrink under more socialist. The party is slowly coming to an end, folks.
Congress was given the power of the purse not the President. – this is BS. Bring people illegally into the country then give them funds that he doesn’t have the authority to give; what happened to we the people?
