California Gov. Gavin Newsom and the state Legislature are working on a coronavirus aid plan for the state’s illegal immigrants and others not covered by the federal government’s $2.2 trillion relief package.
Newsom, a Democrat, disclosed the plans Tuesday, according to The Associated Press. “Californians care deeply about undocumented residents in this state,” the governor, a former mayor of San Francisco, said.
But some California Republicans have spoken out against the plan. “I see the state of California and its budget as a house of cards and with this coronavirus-induced recession, I’m just trying to figure out where the money would come from,” state Sen. John Moorlach, a Republican from Costa Mesa, told the AP. “I would say helping undocumented would be a luxury item.” Click here for more.
