California closes $12-billion deficit by cutting back immigrants' access to healthcare
Story by Trân Nguyễn • 12h

California Gov. Gavin Newsom signed on Friday a budget that pares back a number of progressive priorities, including a landmark healthcare expansion for low-income adult immigrants without legal status, to close a $12-billion deficit.

It’s the third year in a row the nation’s most populous state has been forced to slash funding or stop some of the programs championed by Democratic leaders. Lawmakers passed the budget earlier in the day following an agreement of a $321-billion spending plan between Newsom and Democratic leaders.
 
But the whole budget will be void if lawmakers don't send him legislation to make it easier to build housing by Monday.

The budget avoids some of the most devastating cuts to essential safety net programs, state leaders said. They mostly relied on using state savings, borrowing from special funds and delaying payments to plug the budget hole.

In consequence of these facts, all effective propaganda must be limited to a very few points and must harp on these in slogans until the last member of the public understands what you want him to understand by your slogan.

So basically, Conservatives were right.

HYPOCRITES!!  LIARS!!   Mainly liars.  If I know my democrats, they've got some other way of getting healthcare to illegals.  My guess:  if the bill passes, they already have some group ready to sue the state to continue healthcare and a federal judge, already paid for, to order the state to continue payments.  It's the safe way for a democrat governor, and presidential candidate, to look fiscally responsible.

I can understand if Juan Hernandez comes over the border and he’s so dehydrated from his journey that you give emergency care to save his life and then send him home

But that’s not what CA does. Many of these states and cities incentivize illegal immigrants to cross the border and reward them for doing such

California is subsidizing illegal behavior

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
