    This is just fantastically liberal and stupid. How is this not an incentive to come here illegally? It’s more than an incentive, it’s practically an invitation.

    Many times on this board liberals have said companies should not hire illegals because it’s an incentive, and they even want to hammer the companies that do. According to them, if we did that the illegals won’t come here and the ones who are here would go home. Those same people have to be against what California just did, right?

    If they were objective and consistent in their views, yes. But we know they aren't.

    Lefties place politics above all else even if they seem incredibly hypocritical.

    This is about one thing and one thing only (as it always is).....potential votes. That's all they see here.

    Voters shouldn't allow politicians to get away with this stuff. Being this irresponsible with taxpayer dollars should doom your re-election chances but sadly it most likely won't.

    Free money in Cali, who knew? Damn that’s stupid. Bet if I went there needing something I’d get denied.

    Well that's not surprising given they all sat right there on that debate stage and raised every single one of their hands for giving illegals free healthcare.

    But your ass better have Obamacare or they'll penalize your taxes.

    And they tell us the Democrats are not for open borders....

    Like I said don't listen to the fake words coming out of their mouth watch what they do

    It’s fascinating that the left wants more people to have healthcare and the right wants less people to have it and then they want it determined by the state.

    Such a strange timeline we live in.

    The article says FREE health care. Free!

    We have seniors on Social Security who have to pay $170 a month for Medicare, a system they paid into their entire lives. On top of that, Medicare has out of pocket costs and deductibles. Illegals are getting for free what American citizens have to pay for.

    This is just another foreigners first/Americans last policy by the left. And I believe even YOU said illegals should not be hired and companies who do should be fined. You wanted to remove all incentives for them to come here. What happened?

    There are between 22 and 30 million illegals in this country and they’ll probably all try to move to California. Biden should send the illegals to California instead of having secret flights that send them to Florida, New York and Tennessee.

    Is this move an incentive for more illegal immigrants to enter the US?

    Let put that in other words, the left wants to give my taxes to people who came here illegally. Is it a moral good to steal the money of middle and working class Americans to give to people who come here illegally? If it is, wouldn't it be an even greater good if we gave them your business? Your needs don't matter. You are just a dirty American citizen, your tax dollars should never be wasted for your benefit..... only for your detriment.

    until we’re funding appropriate care for veterans, illegals can **** right off along with those who proposed this insanity.

    Low income citizens always qualify. Illegals already get free care in the ER. This is a better alternative

    If the people of the State of California don’t like they, they can move. Just like the the women in red states, right?

    So states shouldn’t be allowed to set their own policy?
    I thought y’all were all for states rights? Or is that only when you are forcing people to act as an incubator for the state?

    Just the opposite will happen, every illegal will move to California.

    as long as the State is using their own tax payer money, I do not care

    "Nationwide, federal and state governments join together to give free health care to low-income adults and children through Medicaid. But the federal government won’t pay for people who are living in the country illegally. Some states, including California, have used their own tax dollars to cover a portion of health care expenses for some low-income immigrants."
