Medi-Cal
A bill (SBX3 16) by Sen. Dave Cox (R-Fair Oaks) would place a measure on the next statewide ballot to ask voters to shift funds allocated to the First 5 Commission to the state general fund to help support Medi-Cal and Healthy Families. The measure also would eliminate the California Children and Families commission (Bill text, 6/17). Cox introduced the bill in the Senate (Bill status, 6/17).
