A coalition of Democratic attorneys general has petitioned a court to allow them to defend a federal policy providing subsidized health coverage to 'Dreamers', young adults who were brought to the US as undocumented immigrants as children. This move comes as the Trump administration's stance on the issue remains uncertain. The attorneys general aim to ensure continued healthcare access for these individuals, who are eligible for the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program. With the fate of their health coverage hanging in the balance, the attorneys general are taking a proactive approach to safeguard the wellbeing of these young adults, emphasizing the importance of healthcare reform and immigrant rights.
