Most California voters support the state’s efforts to increase health care coverage for migrants without legal status, a new survey found.
According to a new survey from the University of California, Berkeley and Politico, 21 percent of surveyed voters believe the state should continue to offer Medicaid coverage to migrants without legal status, even if it means there will be cuts elsewhere in the budget.
Thirty-two percent of respondents say California should cont...

Supreme Court grapples with challenge to ObamaCare preventive care panel
The Supreme Court seemed open on Monday to upholding the constitutionality of an ObamaCare requirement that insurance companies cover certain preventive care recommended by an expert panel.
Conservative Justices Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett both seemed inclined to support the position of the government and uphold the requirement, though their questions left room for uncertainty and interpretation.
Monday's case was the culmination of fi...
Preventative care was a game-changer, but now the Supreme Court could take it away
Amid the Trump administration’s scorched earth approach to governing — which includes threatening hundreds of billions of dollars in Medicaid funding — a serious threat to health care has gone under the radar. It could undo years of progress toward preventing disease and making Americans healthier and more secure.
In Kennedy v. Braidwood, a case being heard today at the Supreme Court, a lawyer with a long history of attacking fundamental...

Send in the clown: Bill Maher turns pro-Trump
There’s a maxim that the difference between a comedian and a comic is that a comedian says funny things, and a comic says things funny. Then there are clowns — like Bill Maher. He traded his red nose for a big brown one the second he eagerly walked into President Trump’s gaudy White Fun House of deception.
Maher, the comic who once fancied himself a fearless political truth-teller, is now wobbling under the weight of his own ego. His recent televised monologue — an ex...
Is Ted Cruz running again? Texas carves out unique lane in Trump’s GOP
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), who finished in second place to President Trump in the 2016 Republican presidential primary, has distinguished himself from MAGA World by declaring his skepticism of long-term tariffs, remaining a hawk on Russia and coming out against proposals to tax the rich.
By calling out tariffs as “taxes on American consumers” and sticking to his view that Russia poses a serious threat to U.S. interests, Cruz may be laying the groundwork to run against Trump’s he...
Medicaid cuts jeopardize the right to age at home
If you or someone you love wants to age at home — and nearly 90 percent of older Americans do — there’s a number you should know: $2.3 trillion.
That’s how much could be cut from Medicaid under current budget proposals. And while headlines often focus on how these cuts would affect nursing homes, what’s less understood but equally devastating is what they would mean for home-based care.
These cuts would strike at the heart of the support system that allows millions ...
