Fear Kept Immigrants From Medicaid, and Now Re-Enrollment Is Hard

A Mother Jones report says immigration fears drove many immigrants in California to drop off Medicaid, and now many cannot re-enroll. The piece links disenrollment to the Trump administration's tax-and-spending law and related cuts, warning that families who avoided enrollment over deportation fears have lost health coverage and face barriers to getting it back.
Why now: New reporting highlights the lasting health coverage losses caused by immigration enforcement fears and recent policy changes.
