A majority of California voters support continuing health coverage for undocumented immigrants through the state's Medicaid program, even as concerns grow over its rising costs, according to a new UC Berkeley and Politico survey.
The study found that 21% of respondents support offering Medi-Cal coverage to undocumented migrants even if it requires cutting other parts of the state budget. Another 32% back the program but believe legal residents should be prioritized if budget cuts are necessary. Thirty-one percent oppose the expansion altogether, while 17% support scaling it back.
