The Biden administration has finalized a rule that expands healthcare access to DACA recipients by allowing them to enroll in health plans through the Affordable Care Act (ACA). This decision is expected to benefit approximately 100,000 DACA recipients, including thousands in New York. The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) estimates that the rule may cost taxpayers $305 million per year by fiscal year 2026.
