The Biden-Harris administration's recent decision to extend affordable, quality health care coverage under Obamacare to over 100,000 illegal immigrants protected by the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program has sparked significant controversy and opposition in Congress. Key Republican figures, including Senator Marsha Blackburn and Representative Kevin Cramer, have criticized the policy as unjust and economically unsustainable, demanding answers from the Department of Health and Human Services.
