Episode Details

California’s governor and legislature narrowly agreed on a last-minute budget deal that delays harmful healthcare cuts for undocumented immigrants and adds pressure on big corporations to pay more for Medi-Cal. Advocates successfully blocked premium hikes and dental benefit eliminations, while homeless programs got funding—but with strict spending rules. The deal also includes election infrastructure spending and a new corporate accountability measure targeting employers with 250+ workers who don’t offer coverage. With the governor’s term ending, this budget reflects both political compromise and rising pressure to make corporations contribute fairly.
