Paramount among them is the expansion of Medi-Cal, the state's Medicaid program to cover low-income undocumented immigrants up to the age of 26. This move will saddle California taxpayers with billions of dollars in new spending commitments and make it harder for all state residents to secure access to timely care.
Currently, Medi-Cal provides coverage to one-third of the state's 39 million people. Undocumented minors through age 18 are already eligible for Medi-Cal. Raising that age cap to 26 is expected to bring an additional 90,000 people into the program at an estimated cost of $98 million a year, the state says.
"Further, an expanded Medi-Cal could make it harder for everyone in the program to access care. Doctors typically limit the number of Medi-Cal patients they'll see because the program pays them so little. Medi-Cal pays about 50 percent less than Medicare, which pays about 40 percent less than private insurance.
In 2013, only about half of California's doctors were willing to see new Medi-Cal patients. Tens of thousands of new undocumented enrollees will be competing with Medi-Cal's nearly 13 million existing beneficiaries for scarce appointments."
Oh ok...so you didn’t mean federally, you meant a California state initiative(or you goal post moving). Now I won’t say I agree, but, Cali does get A TON of cheap labor for undesirable positions from these same illegals.....Cali grows bout all the u.s.’s veggies and fruits and it ain’t cacs out there tending fields, ya dig. The domestic cleaning industry is also huge in Cali, lotta homeowners don’t wanna pay payroll taxes....so illegals get the call.

Any Black person that’s ever been in the streets or the work force knows this. They are more antagonist towards us than whites.
Its is sad. but that's on her parents. They knew the risk when they came here illegally. Some get away some get caught. That's the game.
