Undocumented Californians Gain Access To More Opportunities With Passage Of Legislation

Gov. Gavin Newsom announced Friday the passing of legislation aimed towards helping undocumented Californians gain access to more opportunities for economic inclusion.

Some of the new legislation bills include AB 1766 brought forward by Assembly member Mark Stone, D-Scotts Valley, AB 1232 by Assembly member Kevin McCarty, D-Sacramento, AB 2068 by Assembly member Matt Haney, D-San Francisco and AB 2193 by Assembly member Jesse Gabriel, D-Encino.

“California is expanding opportunity for everyone, regardless of immigration status,” Newsom said.
AB 1766 will allow all undocumented Californians to obtain a State ID, which will help with community and economic participation. AB 1232 will give immigrant students improved access to in-state tuition at public colleges and universities, as well as ESL courses at community colleges.

Under the legislation packages passed by Newsom, immigrant student borrowers will also have more options to finance their college educations.

Occupational safety and health are included in AB 2068, meaning that undocumented people will have access to community health workers and promoters who can facilitate and provide culturally and linguistically responsive care.

California Division of Occupational Safety and Health postings will now be provided in various languages to protect workers and support safe workplaces, according to the legislation.

“We’re a state of refuge – a majority-minority state, where 27 percent of us are immigrants. That’s why I’m proud to announce the signing of today’s bills to further support our immigrant community, which makes our state stronger every single day,” Newsom said.

AB 2193 deals with providing low-income Californians eligibility for legal assistance in civil matters that affect basic human needs, regardless of a persons immigration status.

Street vendors will also get local health permits more easily under the legislation.

“The cost of illegal immigration in California totals $21.76 billion”

“I’m proud to announce the signing of today’s bills to further “support” our immigrant community, which makes our state stronger every single day,” Newsom said”.

How in the world does spending even more money on illegal aliens on top of the $21.76 Billion we were already spending on them, make our state stronger?

Oh, please September 25, 2022 - 3:38 PM - 3:38 PM

Giving them state ID’s “for better access to things” is complete ABS and they know it.
They get everything they want handed to them abd are not refused anything for not having ID,they would say it’s racist,when race isnt even involved.
The whole idea behind giving illegals a Ca ID is so they can vote..will it have a giant stamp on it saying”not eleigable as voter ID” like some ID’s do?
It wont.
It’s because democrats cant win ANY election without cheating.
If Americans could vote in Mexico’s elections it would benefit the USA and harm Mexico,the same thing that will happen here.
And they know it

Wouldn’t all this be aiding and abetting someone who has broken the law by coming into this country illegally?

Dawg September 25, 2022 - 3:37 PM - 3:37 PM

Explain to me again, how are illegals making our state stronger every single day? If this contemptible governor wants to give illegals access to so many benefits, then make those illegals pay Medi-Cal, and state income tax.
By the way, in 1986 California voters passed Prop 63 making English the official language of California, so the California Division of Occupational Safety and Health, has no business posting anything in various languages on the taxpayers dime.
Silly me, here I was thinking Newsom couldn’t get any more despicable. Boy! Was I wrong!

So Alien
You pay taxes when you purchase items, do you pay the state and federal taxes annually by April 15th?
Health Insurance, is that by your ’employer’ or do you buy your own?
Does your employer know that you are illegal? Or did you lie to them when you applied … That is a fair question since you “openly” admit that you are in this country illegally.
Let’s be clear, you broke federal laws by entering this country, but you ‘proudly’ say you pay taxes … so does that make it ‘alright’? Not in my book!

The alien invasion of the USA is coming from around the world. People of all colors, religions and political leanings who have no respect for our borders and laws, illegally crossing into the USA and demanding we take care of them…. but all we care about is race?

You’re a narrow minded Left Wing Looneycrat Crystal clear.
This isn’t about race!

It’s about the USA….. America, a sovereign country, a constitutional republic, being invaded and overrun by 106 different nations sending us their dregs.

They aren’t here looking for freedom, they’re here for a handout, free stuff…. charity they can’t get in their own country. Some of them are here for more nefarious reasons.

Crystal: I have relatives who did clothing piecework at a factory here in California in the 1970s and immigration would just show up, load the illegals on a bus and deport them. It has only been made difficult by the Democrats and a mass of lawyers. California was a much better state back then. Your poor decisions and beliefs are degrading the quality of life here, and you should be apologizing instead of attacking those who are frustrated by the mess you helped create.

Illegal immigrants ARE NOT Californians. They are foreign individuals who have committed a crime to enter this Country. They are neither citizens of the United States or legal residents of the State of California. We do not owe them a cent of taxpayers money. Let all those who feel otherwise donate to a fund that the Government can use for their disposition. Keep your hands off my tax money.

jose September 26, 2022 - 5:26 AM - 5:26 AM

Just because someone from another country crossed into our state or any other state of the United States does not make them a member of that state.
All that makes them is illegal people that is ignored by the laws of that said state.
Maybe some 20-30% of us are immigrants but they knew what to do to get here legally to become citizens.
The liberal democrats could not win much of anything if they don’t have a permanent underclass of voting citizens on their teats.

THE BLACK KNIGHT September 26, 2022 - 9:18 AM - 9:18 AM

The United States of America is on the verge of changing like never before!!! The foreign-born population of legal aliens and illegal aliens in the United States has never surpassed 15% of our overall population, the highest it has ever been was 14.8% or about 14 million in 1910, the lowest it has ever been was 4.7% or about 10 million in 1970, while today it makes up 14.4% or about 48 million. The native-born population always seemed to get restless when the foreign-born population neared that 15% threshold. This year we have many politicians running for office on the issue of illegal immigration, yet i don’t hear any of there candidates educating voters on the above information and telling voters the country is about to change like never before. Each year we allow more than 1 million legal aliens into the United States when we typically need no more than 400,000 legal aliens per year, but because we allow legal aliens to choose who we allow in for purposes of family reunification we allow far more individuals than we need. Immigration should be based on the needs of the the U.S., skilled workers, family reunification for only spouses and minor children, limited or no immigration in times of recession, depression, and high unemployment. The vast majority of legal aliens and illegal aliens that we currently have in the U.S. are uneducated and no-skill or low-skill workers that are more likely to use government services which costs tax payers far more than the average alien would ever pay in taxes.

The Biden illegals are being sent into swing districts with weak voting laws where they will be deployed to vote illegally. This has been obvious from day one of the regime. Newsom flurry of bill signing is going to result in a record of anti American middle class, Marxist activism that will end his presidential ambition cold. Dick Morris says Newsom will be shunned by the party in 24, even with his connections to the Pelosi mafia and they will beg Hillary to run, like they used the decrepit dementia patient in 20. Will it work a second time? Will the illegal drop boxes and voting rule changes be fixed by 24? What about Dominion voting machines. This is still an unresolved problem.

Bless you Newsom for having a heart by taken care of illegal immigrants. Conversely, woe to desantis, Abbott for harassing illegal immigrants.

Let be nice to immigrants (illegal or otherwise) for they or theirs descendent could be stars in the future. For example, David Campos (formerly illegal immigrant) and Barack Obama (the son of a Kenyan immigrant). They are not here for a hand out. Rather they come here for a better life and as alien eloquently said that they pay taxes and healthcare

I support Desantis and Abbott for placing willing asylum seeking immigrants in a place that said that they would willingly accept them. Funny though how quickly Martha removed the immigrants, how they had to call the National Guard … and how they called it a travesty. Funny it is not a humanitarian issue unless it shows up on their doorstep.

So Paul, open your house. Let the illegal immigrants into your home. You feed them, clothe them, supply them jobs …

I will support a LEGAL immigrant to the best of my ability but if you want to start your life in this country ILLEGALLY, no … I will not support that, nor anyone that does.

We do support (unfortunately) the illegal aliens who are in the country illegally. So do you support the criminal who has broken into your house by providing them food and shelter? Yeah, it is the same.

This has NOTHING to do with a white America .. or a melting pot .. or any other race driven factor. This is ONLY based on whether you arrived here legally or not.

Paul September 27, 2022 - 11:29 AM - 11:29 AM

Parent,

Illegal immigrants and criminals aren’t the same because illegal immigrants are here to look for a better life. They come here illegally but there are chances to become legal; there could be new policies like Obama policy for dreamers or they could successfully seeking asylum or marry a us citizen.

By the way, if you think hard about it. It is unfortunate that we provide food and shelter to criminals; you know like when they end up in jail.

Illegal September 27, 2022 - 12:52 PM - 12:52 PM

Look in the dictionary, you moron. They are ONE AND THE SAME! Do you know what a dictionary is? Ask any judge, attorney or police officer.

Illegal immigration is by definition a crime. And who do you think commits crimes ? CRIMINALS!
