California craziness: Congress May Have to Stop State from Giving 'Free' Health Care to Illegal Immigrants

California has escalating crime, cities teaming with homeless people, clogged and crumbling roads, massive unpaid bills, some of America’s highest taxes, and some of its worst public school systems.

So what’s the plan by Gavin Newsom, the Democratic Party’s candidate for governor, to improve the situation? On Tuesday he suggested giving free health care to illegal immigrants.

Speaking on a left-wing podcast, the former mayor of San Francisco said: “I did universal health care when I was mayor, fully implemented, regardless of pre-existing condition, ability to pay, and regardless of your immigration status. I’d like to see that extended to the rest of the state. San Francisco is the only universal health-care plan for all undocumented residents in America.”

Thus continues California progressives’ war on the state’s law-abiding and productive residents, especially its middle class. If Newsom becomes governor, they may get to pay for health care for people who don’t even belong in the country and can’t or won’t pull their own weight.

It’s unclear if Newsom and his progressive allies understand that dispensing a growing list of government benefits to groups of people creates an unwanted magnet effect. In 2016, Los Angeles voters approved a bond initiative throwing an extra $1.2 billion at the spiraling homeless problem – on top of existing programs. The result: more homeless people and more crime.
