ANNAPOLIS, MD — Governor Moore released the following statement applauding President Biden’s efforts to protect DACA recipients:

“I want to applaud the Biden Administration for their efforts to protect and expand opportunities for Dreamers in our country. Having come from a family of immigrants, this is a deeply personal issue for me, and time and time again President Biden has shown his commitment to supporting this community,” said Governor Wes Moore. “Because of the actions of the Biden-Harris Administration, healthcare options will now be expanded for the more than 7,000 Marylanders who are current DACA recipients, making them eligible for Medicaid and Affordable Care Act coverage for the first time. This proposal will have a significant impact on the lives of so many Marylanders and Dreamers across the country.”
