On Jan. 1, California will become the first state to offer health insurance to all undocumented adults by expanding access to the state-run insurance plan, Medi-Cal.

About 700,000 adults between ages 26 and 49 will be eligible as of Jan. 1

California will welcome the new year by becoming the first state to offer health insurance for all undocumented immigrants.

Starting Jan. 1, all undocumented immigrants, regardless of age, will qualify for Medi-Cal, California’s version of the federal Medicaid program for people with low incomes.

Previously, undocumented immigrants were not qualified to receive comprehensive health insurance but were allowed to receive emergency and pregnancy-related services under Medi-Cal as long as they met eligibility requirements, including income limits and California residency in 2014.

    You never said they didn’t apply to you. Not to me anyway.

        Why on Earth do you think I would click on a YouTube link you sent me unsolicited?

            Putting words in my mouth is not going to get me to watch your childish Rickroll or whatever it is.

            Care to address the fact that you never told me those didn’t apply to you?

              I did, it was one of the first things I said, and you’re a fucking liar and nobody should take anything you say seriously

                Interesting how you’ve spent post after post putting words into my mouth and now you’re calling me a liar.

                Sorry, that still won’t get me to click on your Rickroll.

                    Are you really going to pretend you weren’t putting words in my mouth just a few comments ago?

                    Are you going to claim this is a photoshop job?
