Where are they going to get the money to pay for that?
By taxing the honest working citizens of the state, or holding out their hand to Uncle so the rest of us will have to pay for it?

It's great that they do that, well, it would be great if everyone got affordable health insurance, but now the poor get it and the a bit richer must pay for that and when they need help themselves they can go bankrupt.

Well this should solve a lot of problems for 49 other states. Looks like CA is about to have a serious influx of undocumented immigrants!

Until the other Democrat states decide to follow suit. Then we'll see a true divide in this country when more Republicans move out. OH but then the Democrat states will be wanting a pay out later on when they can't afford what they offer...happened during Covid when they snuck that in the bills. Why make us pay for their bad policies?

The best example is Chicago that declared itself a Sanctuary City, over a thousand miles from the border where the people come in.
And then when Texas decided to take them up on it and started sending them migrants, the politicians called foul and started crying from more money from everybody else.
