Fig. 4 ACA expansion effect on the share of immigrants in the Medicaid-only group. All panels show coefficients and 95% confidence intervals from state-clustered standard errors from implementing Eq. (4). We weigh the regressions by the state size of the relevant group. Coefficients capture differences between expansion and nonexpansion states in the share of immigrants in the indicated group who are categorized as legal by the Medicaid criteria alone, relative to differences in 2013. Panel a includes all immigrant agricultural workers in the ACS, and panel b includes all immigrants in the ACS. We follow the delineation of expansion and nonexpansion states in Kandilov and Kandilov (2022). Expansion states consist of all states with no or limited expansion prior to 2014 who expanded Medicaid eligibility in 2014, and nonexpansion states consist of states that did not expand Medicaid eligibility or that expanded Medicaid eligibility prior to 2014. Medicaid expansion states are: AR, AZ, CA, CO, CT, HI, IA, IL, KY, MD, MI, MN, ND, NH, NJ, NM, NV, OH, OR, RI, WA, WV.

Fig. 5 Full and base algorithm wage gaps, wage gap difference, Medicaid group wage gap, and Medicaid group weight. This figure shows estimates of the wage penalty between legal and undocumented immigrants as in Borjas and Cassidy (2019). We regress (separately in each year) the log hourly wage on a dummy variable for legal status while controlling for age, educational attainment, country of birth, state of residence, years since migration, birthplace, and English language proficiency. In panel a, the legal status variable is the BC legal status indicator; in panel b, the legal status variable excludes Medicaid in its construction. Panel c shows the difference between panels a and b. In any given year, standard errors are very small (about 0.006) and are omitted from the graphs for clarity. Panel d shows estimates of the adjusted wage gap (|β^M|) between the Medicaid-only group and all other immigrants. The Medicaid-only group consists of all immigrants classified as legal solely because of Medicaid usage. Panel e shows estimates of the Medicaid weight, w^M.
