Biden actions could mean an additional $11 billion in taxpayer funds for California.
Much of America’s future is made, tested, and—more often than not in recent years—fails in California.
California’s Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom just announced that California would begin providing health care coverage to an additional 764,000 illegal immigrants on top of the 1.1 million already in the Medi-Cal system, California’s version of Medicaid. About one-third of California’s shrinking population of 39 million is enrolled in the Medi-Cal program.
California has been incrementally adding illegal immigrants to the Medi-Cal program since 2015. That was the year it made undocumented children eligible. Four years later, it added adults 50 and older. The latest expansion round adds those aged 26 to 49 at an estimated annual cost of $3.1 billion to California taxpayers—or about $4,058 a year in medical coverage subsidies from the state General Fund for those residing in California illegally in this age cohort.
