California Is Expanding Government Health Care to More Illegal Immigrants. Here’s What to Expect.

Carmel Kookogey / July 30, 2019


California is now extending health care benefits to more state residents, including young adult illegal immigrants, as conservatives warn it could attract more illegal immigrants to the state and further burden a health care system without sufficient doctors.

Gov. Gavin Newsom, a Democrat, last month signed into law a measure (Assembly Bill 4) amending the eligibility portion of the state Medicaid program known as Medi-Cal.

“Providing a new public benefit to a group of people in the nation illegally will incentivize more people to risk breaking U.S. immigration law to settle in California,” Chuck DeVore, a former California assemblyman, said.

Ummmm, more illegals and less healthcare?  What did I win?

think we could get Governor Abbott to pay for one way airline tickets for any illegal currently residing in Texas so they can take advantage of California's generosity?

I call it a win/win.
