As James Lynch reports, the Biden administration has finalized a rule to give Obamacare to illegal immigrants who are part of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program.

We editorialized about this last year, when the idea was first floated by President Biden, noting that it confirmed that Barack Obama did in fact lie when he claimed that his health-care program would not provide benefits to illegal immigrants.

A “fact sheet” from the White House estimates that 100,000 illegal immigrants will receive benefits through the program. It explains, “Starting in November, DACA recipients can apply for coverage through HealthCare.gov and state-based marketplaces, where they may qualify for financial assistance to help them purchase quality health insurance.”

So, to be clear, illegal immigrants won’t merely be able to use the Obamacare portal to shop but will also be able to receive federal subsidies based on income, potentially qualifying for completely free medical coverage. There is also no reason to feel confident that the government will be able to accurately verify income for this population.

This is another example of executive overreach from a lawless administration.
