    California still expanding benefits to some immigrants, despite Trump public charge rule

    BY YESENIA AMARO 

    Despite the U.S. Supreme Court siding with the Trump administration in a recent ruling on a controversial rule about undocumented immigrants who use public benefits, California this year expanded benefits to immigrant residents.

    The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday ruled to allow the Trump administration to proceed with the public charge rule. The rule would make it harder for immigrants to get a green card if they have received federally-funded public benefits— or are likely to depend on them.

    Gov. Gavin Newsom and advocates this week promised to continue fighting against the public rule change, calling the Trump administrations efforts an attempt to “terrorize immigrant families.”

    But California is already using state funds to expand public benefits, such as full-scope Medi-Cal, to insure some populations of undocumented immigrants living in the state.

    It’s past time for Gavin senseless to go. He’s puts the Illegal Aliens above the law and that’s unconstitutional.

    Gavin Nuisance will only harm those he claims to benefit by expanding benefits, paid by taxpayers, to those unlikely paying into the system.
