Sign up now: Medi-Cal expanding to cover immigrant children
Sacramento Bee ^ | April 4, 2016 | Emily Bazar

In a few months, California will begin providing full Medi-Cal coverage to all low-income children – regardless of their immigration status.

Depending on whom you ask, 170,000 to 250,000 children who live in California and are in the country illegally will qualify.

If you think your child will, or know a parent whose child will, state officials and health care advocates have a simple message for you: Take action now.

A little helpful consumer tip. If you can sneak your child across that border the hard working taxpayers of California (and the United States as Medi-Cal is funded by the Feds) will gladly provide free health care for that child.

It’s great that California can give medical benefits to every Central American under the age of 18

Let the depopulation of Mexico continue

“Medi-Cal eligibility is based on household income, and children under the age of 19 qualify”

They’re eligible for Medi-Cal if the family’s household income is less than 266 percent of the Federal Poverty Level, or about $53,600 for a family of three and $75,650 for a family of five.

That is MORE THAN HALF THE POPULATION of THE STATE!!!

What a frikkin Joke.

Dear President Trump, Please stop ALL Federal Funds from going to this Godforsaken Criminal Hellhole of a State.

What’s the point of citizenship anymore? The only “privilege” we have is paying for the invasion of our own country.

Title should read illegal immigrant.

Very misleading otherwise.

Makes one believe some like Trump are against immigrants.

We are against unlawful entry into this country.

California is becoming a cesspool, if it not already is.

“And people wonder why we fled SoCal last year.”

Watch out, as CA officials will likely come after you for taxes on your retirement income you made while you worked in California, so they can pay these illegals.

CA Franchise Tax Board is the WORST. They put the IRS to shame.

Which is why we moved to a Red Tate with no state income tax.

but they have been making noises about getting money out of former people who worked in CA that had part of their retirement benefits earned in CA. They consider it is income derived in CA that they have a right to.

The state has hundreds of state employees that are dedicated to target non-California businesses and former citizens who are out of state.

Means they will be coming after YOU regardless of where you moved in order to pay for their continued largesse.

The A$$hat, needs to build a wall just to keep industry and normal people from racing out of the state due to his, the other gaia worshipping retards and reconquista liberals that are destroying the economy.

And yet if you are an American citizen pushed to the brink of poverty by the liberals and their policies, you have to go without healthcare because your income is too high to qualify for Medi-Cal, but so low that you don’t even have a choice between having a place to live or eating or healthcare. I know several people in this predicament, because they can’t find employment, but have run out of benefits. Of course they could get assistance if only their spouse quit their jobs, but unlike the leeches oozing across the border, they have ethics.
