...those People are largely undocumented immigrants...roughly one-half of all CA Agricultural workers...since all U.S. hospital ERs take patients regardless of citizenship status...and it's the most expensive way to provide care, it makes sense to offer 'Medi-Cal" insurance to undocumented immigrants so they don't need to clog up ERs...and...be healthier workers with healthier families...never mind being the right thing to do for people who already pay into our Social Security and Medicare Plans without being able to access them.

It's absolutely amazing how selfish some people can be...and oblivious to their own interests...to wit...food prices would skyrocket across the country if we didn't have 'undocumented immigrants' working in our agricultural industries...be careful what you wish for...or vote for.

...from the attached article...
--------------------
Today, so large is the Californian agricultural economy, it ranks as the world’s fifth largest supplier of food. In 2024, the average Californian farmer feeds 155 people, up from just 19 people per farmer in 1940. Not surprisingly that makes it the powerhouse of U.S. agriculture, growing more than 400 commodity crops and generating 11 percent of U.S. agricultural value.

It supplies one-third of U.S. vegetables and three-quarters of its fruit and nuts. California is the country’s biggest milk producer, producing nearly 20 percent of the nation’s milk. And of all crops grown in the U.S., 19 of them – including almonds, pistachios, walnuts, raisins, olives, plums and table grapes – are grown only in California.

Must be quite a dilemma for you.

...this dynamic is going on all over the country...in Red and Blue states. We need those workers, and the least we can do is help them stay healthy. Do you have a problem with that?

Seems 9.5 billion is an accurate number. It’s up from 7 billion the prior year. I don’t like it, but what’s the alternative? It’s against federal law to deny healthcare to anyone. At least under Medi Cal, healthcare provides are getting paid something. It’s at a reduced billing, but they’re getting paid.

I’m not a supporter of “welfare state”, but I do see the reasoning for this.

Be if right or wrong, we need immigrants in the ag industry. Without them, we’d be screwed.

There are legal, and illegal ways to go about this. We've been doing the illegal way at the direction of Democrats. It may be time to try the rule of law.

And I’m sure you’re aware that the ag industry has used illegals for decades. For you or anyone to think that “mass deportation “ will magically fix the issue, you’re kidding yourself.

entire process.
I would not expect as many illegals to be part of any work crews as they will be likely hiding. The workers will need to come from the same pool of people as before from below the border.
Personally, my solution would be to reward those workers that obtain a temporary visa and then lawfully go back home. I would offer them a jump up the waiting list for legal naturalization. What better proof of a hard working, law abiding candidate who wants to take part in the American dream is there than that?

And even Trump's strongest critics would acknowledge he is focused on helping his own country's business. I have confidence that he knows this problem needs to be addressed.

Immigration processing problems...but Trump killed it. Now the clock is ticking on him to pass a Bill that does at least as much as that one.

You surely would have posted about this, along with your undying love for everything Putin.

Slow down there, little man.
