Nailed it.

The most important concept is other state's peoples money (OSPM). CA can do whatever it wants with revenues raised from Californians - what I worry about is the Federal dollars that leak into this equation. If CA wants to give bonuses to illegals, more power to them, just as long as it is only CA general revenue $$’s. MediCal spends a lot of federal dollars, but CA defines eligibility to include illegals. It shouldn't be hard to track federal $’s in this age of information technology. No federal dollars for crazy CA state mandates.
