Almost 30 years ago Californians passed Proposition 187, a ballot measure that denied public benefits to undocumented immigrants. This year, a new state law took effect offering government-subsidized health insurance to the same population.

Gov. Gavin Newsom’s 2022 budget included the latest expansion of MediCal: 700,000 undocumented immigrants between the ages of 26 and 49 will become eligible Jan. 1 although the state is now headed into a $68 billion deficit,

With some Medi-Cal enrollees no longer qualifying or unaware they need to renew their coverage, officials estimate 2 million to 3 million people could lose their health insurance.

There will be no court hearing of a request by AG Xavier Becerra's motion to block the sale of the two local hospitals.

California Attorney General Xavier Becerra is making one last attempt to block the sale of O’Connor and Saint Louise hospitals.
