DHAKA RECIPIENTS KNOWN AS DREAMERS ARE STILL WAITING TO QUALIFY FOR FEDERAL HEALTH CARE INSURANCE PROGRAMS.

EARLIER THIS YEAR, THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION ANNOUNCED PLANS TO EXPAND HEALTH CARE COVERAGE TO THOSE ENROLLED IN THE DEFERRED ACTION FOR CHILDHOOD ARRIVALS PROGRAM.

BUT THE PROPOSED CHANGES YET TO BE FINALIZED, LEAVING THOUSANDS OF YOUNG ADULTS WERE BROUGHT TO THE U.S. AS CHILDREN IN LIMBO.

DIANA FLORES HAS LIVED IN CHICAGO FOR MOST OF HER LIFE.

>> WHICH YOU GREW UP HERE IN CHICAGO.

I GREW UP IN THE SOUTH SIDE OF CHICAGO.

YEAH, I'M KIND PIE.

>> A COUNTY PARK AREA.

>> FLORES HAS CELEBRATED BIRTHDAYS.

GRADUATIONS, AND WELCOMED A BABY BOY ALL WHILE NAVIGATING THE BARRIERS OF BEING A DHAKA RECIPIENT.

>> IT WAS VERY HARD WHEN I HAVE FOUND THAT PREGNANT, UNFORTUNATELY, I DIDN'T HAVE A JOB AT TIME.

MY HUSBAND AND COULDN'T BETWEEN RUNS.

SO I HAD I HAD TO PAY OUT OF POCKET.

I WAS $500 EVERY 2 WEEKS SINCE I WAS CONSIDERED HIGH RISK.

>> THE DHAKA PROGRAM HAS PROTECTED THOUSANDS OF YOUNG ADULTS LIKE FLORES FROM DEPORTATION, BUT THEY ARE RESTRICTED FROM APPLYING TO FEDERAL HEALTH INSURANCE PROGRAMS.

I KNOW I'M STRUGGLING WITH THAT.

THERE'S >> HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF OTHER PEOPLE ALSO STRUGGLING WITH IT.

AND IT'S JUST NOT FAIR FOR US SINCE WE'RE ALSO CONTRIBUTING.

SO A LOT OF TAXES ON THE INSURANCE AND APRIL.

THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION ANNOUNCED PLANS TO EXTEND MEDICAID AND THE AFFORDABLE CARE ACT MARKETPLACE TO DREAMERS.

UNFORTUNATELY, NOVEMBER FIRST HAS COME AROUND AND THE RULE HAS NOT YET BEEN IMPLEMENTED.

>> ARE FINALIZED AND TIME TICKING, SAYS MARTHA SANCHEZ WITH YOUNG INVINCIBLES, ADULT POLICY AND ADVOCACY ORGANIZATION.

WHILE DHAKA RECIPIENTS ARE ELIGIBLE FOR EMPLOYER HEALTH COVERAGE, THERE ARE STILL THOUSANDS OF DREAMERS WITHOUT IT.

I MEAN, WAITING OVER 10 YEARS TO FINALLY HAVE ACCESS TO THE AFFORDABLE CARE ACT MARKETPLACE WOULD BE SIGNIFICANT ANYONE DESERVES TO HAVE, WHICH IS TO BE ABLE TO HAVE ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE, PREVENTIVE HEALTH, ESPECIALLY UNDER THE PROPOSED RULE, CHANGE MORE THAN 100,000 DHAKA RECIPIENTS WOULD BE ELIGIBLE FOR FEDERAL HEALTH CARE FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE WAS IMPLEMENTED IN 2012.

>> HOW MUCH WOULD YOU SAY THAT, YOU KNOW, HAS BEEN SPENT A YEAR DURING THE DURING THE PREGNANCY?

I WANT WE EASON THE EASE AND LIKE $20,000.

>> FLORES WILL BE ABLE TO OBTAIN CITIZENSHIP THROUGH HER MARRIAGE BUT HOPES ONE DAY ALL DREAMERS ARE ABLE TO BECOME CITIZENS AS WELL.

>> PATHWAY TO CITIZENSHIP FOR SURE.

THAT SHOULD BE THE JUST BEING IN HOLE AND NOT EVEN GIVING US THE BARE MINIMUM THE ANSWER.
