State Sen. Matthew Lesser, right, speaks at a rally outside the state Capitol calling on the General Assembly to provide insurance to undocumented immigrants.
Children eight years old and younger, regardless of their immigration status, will qualify for Connecticut’s Medicaid program, known as HUSKY, beginning on Jan. 1, 2023, after the state Senate late Tuesday gave final approval to a bill expanding the coverage.
The Senate passed the bill on a vote of 26 to 10. Two Republicans, Sens. Heather Somers and Paul Formica, joined Democrats in voting in favor. It cleared the House earlier in the day.
