Minnesota expands healthcare access for undocumented residents.
Minnesota is set to allow all undocumented residents to enroll in the state's publicly subsidized insurance program for low-income people, known as MinnesotaCare, under a budget agreement. The proposal will expand public health insurance access to the more than 40,000 undocumented people estimated to live in Minnesota and meet the program's income requirements. The state aims to begin enrolling undocumented residents in 2025. If passed, Minnesota could be the second state to allow all low-income people to enroll in public insurance, regardless of immigration status.
