Sacramento, Calif. — California will become the first state in the country to pay for some adults living in the country illegally to have full health benefits as the solidly liberal state continues to distance itself from President Trump’s administration. Democrats in the state Legislature reached an agreement Sunday afternoon as part of a broader plan to spend $213 billion of state and federal tax money over the next year. The agreement means low-income adults between the ages of 19 and 25 living in California illegally would be eligible for California’s Medicaid program, the joint state and federal health insurance program

I live in California. It has become a 3rd world environment and the Democrats don't give a damn because the politicians have such a good pension plan that they will commit economic suicide rather that use common sense and solve problems..

Shouldn't that read "Californians"?

Fabulous. Now maybe all the illegal aliens in my state will head for California. But only CA state money should be used. The rest of us shouldn't have to pay the bill. As they used to say on the Beverly Hillbillies California is the place you ought to be. Swimming pools. Movie stars. Illegal aliens. Liberals. Earthquakes. June bugs. The Manson Family. I'll take LA, Lower Alabama.

This makes me absolutely furious! How can they be allowed to get away with this? I live in California and pay more than $1,000 a month (!!!) for my family's health insurance...and apparently for illegal aliens too. We are literally being robbed by the Democrats in order to support their invasion of backup voters for their socialist dreams.
Isn't there anyone in government who will stop this criminal insanity? Or do we have to take up arms to stop this ourselves?

As long as they only tax the people of Cuba-fornia to pay for this, and don't use a single dime of federal tax money for it, they can do whatever they want.
Hey, if I'm an illegal alien in Texas, New Mexico, or Arizona, I am heading west on I-10 as we speak to get in on this great deal!!! Sounds like a win/win for those other states and the brain-dead lie-berals in Cuba-fornia. While I feel sorry for all the conservatives in Cuba-fornia, but all I can say is that I-10 goes east too!!!

Every leech in the other 49 states should immediately move to CA for the sunshine and all the free bennies.

Once CA becomes truly overwhelmed by their welfare promises, the hand-wringers will demand that Federal moneys be used to pay illegals' expenses. If there was a checkbox on your Federal Tax form to delegate a portion of your tax money to CA, just how many Americans would check that box to send part of their tax money to ILLEGALS. But DON'T WORRY because liberal politicians WON'T ASK YOUR PERMISSION. Instead, they'll send you an email with a photo of a middle finger.

I am well pleased Proposition EE to increase LASD employees by taxing square footage of homes did not pass. I believe Illegal Alien Criminals always had de facto medical treatment throughout California.

Congressman Joe Wilson of S.C. is owed a TREMENDOUS apology for the grief he took when he shouted “You lie!”

It's breathtaking to watch the decline of what was once known as The Golden State. Kudos to our California L-Dotters fighting the good fight against overwhelming odds.

Keep it up California. A few more freebies at the citizen's expanse and your state will find itself in the Trump column in 2020.

Time to kick California out of the Union. We get rid of all of them plus Pelosi, Feinstein, Horizontal Harris, Mad Maxine, Pencil Neck Schift and other cockroaches. A win win.

You have to wonder if there will ever be a tipping point. So far, California seems to be doubling down on their stupidity on the assumption that voting in more democrats and higher taxes will improve the situation.

All the years I put into SS and carried health insurance for my family when I was younger and all I had to do was take them to Mexico enter the United States illegally into California and my family could live for free and have all the 'bennies' offered. I am really stupid but too old now to do it. Maybe Donald Trump should go to Mexico and enter the US illegally and the democrats would move to build the wall. Up is down and down is up in the bizzaro state of California.

I don't have health insurance because of the cost. Illegals will get it for free. This is insane.

That’s good because now the vast majority of illegal aliens will head for California where for them most “stuff” will be “free”.

Why do "federal dollars" go toward state programs that are abused like this? Article says also that the state will help fund this folly by an extra tax on the uninsured, some who no doubt cannot afford to purchase insurance for themselves.
