So why is Canada not paying for poor Americans with no health care, i know there not Canadians!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So why should an american pay for someone from latin american
This is a political stunt because California refused to pass Med4All, which would have made this bill pointless. All this does is set California citizens against immigrants.
Lol look at all the reactionary "working class" commenters. Dont like hispanic illegals then stop fucking with their countries.
The legit american working middle class stop going to work or at least stop paying on mortgages, creditors, utilities, car payments. Loot grocery stores. This would have to be an all hands on deck from west coast to east coast

Let's all Americans citizens go on strike. Our taxes should and paid health insurance premiums should be to us how paid
As a working class Californian who fastidiously takes care of my health and fitness because I can't afford medical insurance, I find it egregious that California will soon be fining me to pay for health insurance for undocumented immigrants. Young central Americans can now come here, find a job working for cash (which many do where I live, in the industry I work in) and have poor people like me foot their bills for medical insurance when it doesn't make sense for me to get it for myself. Meanwhile, I live in an area where there are more billionaires per capita than any other place in the world.
A majority of Californians wanted single payer healthcare. And the California legislature wouldn't consider it because they're in the pockets of the insurance companies.
And now they do this. California is the epitome of neoliberalism. In many ways, it is one of the least progressive states in the U.S.
Massive homeless problem all over the state of California, but let's give illegal aliens free healthcare…
WAKE UP
"Viruses know no borders", just like "money doesn't grow on trees".
But what do Americans care about debt?
That's the way to do it, thank you California, every life matters.
One nation under communism and slavery for all.
Wow! They can't even fix the homeless problem they have! Now they trying to give them Medicare?! Fuck out of here!
Reality is this,
Predatory Capitalism Keeps Americans in Perpetual Debt Hidden in this strange tale of us here in America is how capitalism has come to wreck and devastate American life. America is the kind of society which can’t provide the most basic of basics to its people anymore. Hence, it’s destabilizing, collapsing, turning on itself. When society can’t provide the basics of life to people anymore, affordable, at least, its days are numbered. Yes, I mean that. People will turn to all kinds of alternatives, usually violent ones, usually regressive, toxic ones , like fascism and authoritarianism and theocracy, all of which are rising in America by the day. It’s not a coincidence America’s collapsing into theocracy, fascism, and authoritarianism at the precise moment it can’t provide the basics of life to people anymore: it’s an abusive relationship. But I do know that the textbook definition of predatory capitalism is this: making the majority of people in society pay fake, artificial, perpetual, never-ending debts for literally everything in society…first healthcare, then retirement, then education…and now school lunches, for Pete’s sake…for no other reason than ever higher profits for a tiny few. Shades of Rome or Weimar Germany. And unless a society riven by those fake, perpetual, endless debts gets how badly capitalism is preying on it, it’s probably not going to make it. ~PEACE!

Answer to the issue have all undocumented immigrants take out EIN numbers pay taxes and pay monthly for health care but a small fee they can afford that will help with the cost. When they file taxes have them pay a penalty for being. Illegal that will also help with the cost
Well we send billions to the Israel’s and they don’t live here
Wait what? Undocumented adults get Medicaid but I don’t have any health insurance at all? If you want Trump, this is exactly how you will get him. #DemExitForever
california wants to be its own country , a 3rd world country with super rich and super poor
When we tried to get single payer for CA, the CA Dem establishment undemocratically blocked it. The CA "progressive policy makers" continue to prioritize the undocumented over citizens, and we continue being fucked over by the dreamy-eyed idealism of the well off. The cost of living is back breaking throughout the state, and we receive nothing for our high taxes, but money is easily available when undocumented immigrants are the beneficiaries. This legislation also brings back the mandate for citizens, but the mandate does not apply to illegal immigrants.
as an American, i welcome immigrants. Funk Donny Trump & his flock of feeble-minded Sheeple.
Just give me free ammo
