Minnesota joins 13 states to defend health care coverage for DACA recipients
Attorney General Keith Ellison says defending health care for DACA recipients protects public health and safety.
Donald Trump has said he wants DACA recipients to stay in the U.S. but tried to end the program in his first term.
Michigan is one of 14 states taking legal action to protect health insurance access for Dreamers from potential court challenges.
The effort is in response to a legal challenge led by Kansas and several other states against a Biden administration rule.
