If ice only goes after undocumented or expelled immigrants, why are they in the medicade system?

Undocumented immigrants often have legally-resident and/or citizen family members who are eligible for Medicaid.

But yes, it's disgusting that ICE has access to that data via Palantir, or that this data is being used for anything other than administering Medicaid.
