Jerry Brown to GOP on Obamacare: Don’t just shift costs to states
Sacramento Bee ^ | January 13, 2017 | Christopher Cadelago

As the Republican-led Congress moved to repeal the federal health care law, Gov. Jerry Brown warned Friday that dismantling the Affordable Care Act without passing a suitable alternative wouldn’t just leave millions of Californians without care.

Brown wrote. “But I implore you: don’t just shift billions of dollars in costs to the states. That would be a very cynical way to prop up the federal budget – and devastating to millions of Americans.”


Well Jerry you told the federal government to go to hell with their immigration laws and now that the chickens are coming home to roost you are crying in your beer. Some 14 million Californians are on Medi-Cal (Medicaid) and you just put every illegal alien 18 and under into the program. The state legislature has a bill pending to put all illegal aliens into the ACA. You made your stew so now sit in it.

I agree with your thoughts.

Jerry has essentially said to illegals, “COME ON DOWNNN. Feds, go to hell!”

He championed the state to create a glut of people on Meci-Cal to get them Obamacare. I have no doubt illegals have been getting it. I don’t know if that is legal or not. I don’t think it is.

Over 50% of all children in the state are on it. I believe over a third of all adults in the state are on it.

Jerry is no different than any other Democrat. He has no idea how things will get paid for, but he has such a great big heart with “our money”.

When all the laws are enforced, good old Jerry will have to explain to an awful lot of people why they are no longer covered.

Good luck with that.

California says it will cost the US Treasury 16 billion to pay for health insurance to pay for 4 million squatters/illegal immigrants in CA.

The only chance to be had breaking the back of this corruption is to cut off Federal funding for California's state initiated political programs.

Where is it written that the state, any State, is responsible for health insurance or health care? The State is not responsible, the individual is. If it is convenient for the State to provide care for the indigent, then do so but stay out of my insurance and doctor’s office.

Didn’t we just read that the CA “Railroad to Nowhere” is costing BILLIONS? CA must be flush with cash, so they can pay for their own healthcare. Of course, since CA is paying for millions of illegals, too, it may be expensive.

It won’t be devastating to millions of Americans. It will be devastating to millions of illegals.
