DACA changes our status from illegal to temporarily legalized. eh, not really. in terms of federal law, DACA recipients don't count as legal immigrants for most purposes. don't qualify for federal financial aid, don't qualify for health care through medicaid or CHIP, etc. again, some states allow them to be covered through their state medicaid and CHIP programs, but they bear the full costs of the program (whereas most of the time the federal government reimburses them a percentage of the costs) it does allow, in some states, DACA recipients to be granted legal status in those states, but that varies, too. though I'm not sure why the distinction matters here. --- It's one more thing we do to the poor, the deprived: cut out their tongues . . . allow them a language as lousy as their lives ...
