SEATTLE - 15 states all across the nation filed federal lawsuits against a Biden administration rule that is expected to allow 100,000 immigrants brought to the U.S. illegally as children to enroll in the federal Affordable Care Act's health insurance, also known as 'Obamacare,' next year.
The lawsuit argues that the rule violates a 1996 welfare reform law and the ACA. It also claims that it would encourage more immigrants to come to the U.S. illegally, burdening the states and their public school systems.
