Hundreds of thousands of legal immigrants face losing Medicaid coverage October 1

Original: "Hundreds of thousands of immigrants with legal status are at risk of losing government health coverage starting Oct. 1,

State data shows hundreds of thousands of immigrants with legal status are at risk of losing government health coverage starting October 1, suggesting the impact of Medicaid changes in President Donald Trump's 2025 signature legislation may be greater than anticipated. Advocates and policy analysts are warning that enrollees could be dropped from coverage despite having lawful status, raising concerns about access to care and the scope of the law's effects.

Why now: The October 1 deadline for coverage losses is approaching and new state data suggests the impact of the 2025 law is larger than expected.
