Kansas Attorney General Kris Kobach has filed a lawsuit in federal court to stop the Biden-Harris Administration from giving Obamacare to illegal aliens. Kobach is joined in the lawsuit by attorneys general from 14 other states. Kobach says illegal aliens shouldn’t get a free pass into our country, and shouldn’t receive taxpayer benefits when they arrive, and the Bden-Harris Administration shouldn’t get a free pass to violate federal law.

The final plan, set to take effect November 1st, would make more than 200,000 deferred action for childhood arrival, or DACA, recipients eligible for taxpayer-subsidized health plans, including 4,350 DACA recipients in Kansas.

According to the complaint, the proposed regulation violates a federal law that prohibits giving public benefits to illegal aliens. It also violates the plain text of the Affordable Care Act, or Obamacare, itself. The suit says that in the care act, congress limited eligibility to participate in a qualified health plan through a subsidized health exchange to citizens or nationals of the United States and individuals ‘lawfully present’ in the United States.
