Wink wink nod nod as the feds send billions to give to invaders.
With a state budget of $170B this $53M is .3% and should be in the noise. But it can hurt this badly mismanaged state that is losing tax revenue.
Remember that famous quote: “A billion here, a billion there and pretty soon you’re talking about real money”
“improperly” is not the right word. “illegally” is the the right word. And there should be prosecutions.
It was intentional. WHen Trump did away with ‘Dreamers’, CA directed Social Services went through and removed ‘Dreamer’ status from illegals to help them blend in. They offered excellent annual exams for illegal children, something I’d like to see for all children, but know we can’t pay for and don’t want to have used as incentives to illegally enter California.
But Social Services heard Trump do away with ‘Dreamers’ and took administrative steps to hide the Dreamers they had on their rolls. It is sweet justice that they now have to pay back what they took from the taxpayers, many of whom can’t offer their own children regular, thorough physicals.
It sounds like there must be a lot of false book keeping entries that can be chained together into a few hundred thousand years of federal prison time to be spread among a large class of defendants. Obviously, Gavin Newsome and his subordinates and the majority in the California legislature need to stand trial just like Trump did in New York.
The link is gone or the story has been moved.
Now you know where the $24 billion for the “homeless” went. Not to the homeless but to the illegals.
“noncitizens with unsatisfactory immigration status,”
Illegals is far easier to say.

They falsified business records and defrauded the Taxpayers out of $53 Million dollars...How come no Criminal Indictments yet?
