Will it be enough to make me want to stay in California? Send me Jack Dorsey’s money. I’ll put it to better use.

“Take from the hard working folks and buy votes from the rest.”

And it’s underwritten by the rest of the country.

$35 million for monthly cash payments to qualifying pregnant people...

The liquor stores and dope dealers in South Central L.A. and Compton will be having a field day.

But there are 40 California State Senators - 9 of whom are Republican, and 80 California Assemblymen - 19 of whom are Republican.

Looks like most Republican Assemblymen didn't even bother to vote, or abstained.

That's bipartisanship?

I believe that this is not the first... if you count sovereign states... like Finland. They apparently tried it in a limited way, and the results were so negative that they canceled any plans of instituting this mistake nationwide. Perhaps that is a clue, Governor Newsom?

So can I “identify myself” as a pregnant, foster family survivor (I’m a dude). That’s how it works in libtard land, right?

State funded.

Don’t make me laugh.

Federal taxpayers are subsidizing this.

Punish the innocent, reward the guilty. It’s the Democrat-Communist way.
