BREAKING: Judge halts Trump's insurance mandate for immigrants
A federal judge in Oregon blocked President Donald Trump's bid to deny immigrants visas unless they buy health insurance within 30 days of entering the country or otherwise show they can cover their medical costs.
"The proclamation is anticipated to affect approximately 60 percent of all immigrant visa applicants," the judge wrote."The president offers no national security or foreign relations justification for this sweeping change in immigration law." Simon, a Barack Obama appointee, had already temporarily blocked the policy from taking effect early this month, saying there was sufficient concern about the legality of the new requirements to merit a delay, particularly since the administration didn't use a standard public comment period for the new rules.
They wouldn't be able to use federal subsidies to buy coverage on Obamacare exchanges, but could buy short-term insurance plans the administration has promoted that are cheaper but only offer barebone coverage.
