The study’s framework identifies state-level policies across five different domains — 1) public health and welfare benefits; 2) higher education; 3) labor and employment policies; 4) drivers’ licenses and identification systems; and 5) immigration enforcement. These domains impact the health of immigrants and that vary across states, especially for those without legal status.

This fact sheet reports data showing that in states that have a greater number of inclusive policies, Latino immigrants who lack citizenship have higher rates of health insurance coverage. Controlling for sociodemographic factors such as age, education, and income, noncitizen Latinos in states with more than nine inclusive policies have a 10 percent higher probability of having health insurance than do noncitizen Latinos in states with no inclusive policies.

Over the last 20 years, policymaking related to immigrant populations has increasingly been conducted at the state-level. State immigrant polices may influence immigrant poverty by determining immigrants’ level of access to social, economic, political, and health resources and by shaping the social environment.

This study examines the extent to which physical and mental health differed by legal status and duration in the USA for the Latino population in Los Angeles County, California. Authors conducted analysis of 1,396 Latino respondents to the Los Angeles Family and Neighborhood Survey (L.A.FANS) Wave II. They examined self-reported health, depression measured by the Composite International Diagnostic Interview—Short Form, and blood pressure collected by trained interviewers.
