Bill Would Expand Health Care to Undocumented Immigrants
On Tuesday, Assembly member Roger Hernandez (D-West Covina) introduced a bill (AB 35) that would provide about 400,000 undocumented immigrants in California with access to state-administered health care services. AB 35 also would allow certain immigrants to obtain unemployment benefits and a state ID card, among other things.
