CA budget talks near deadline as advocates push to protect immigrant health, food aid, and legal help

California is facing a budget deadline, and a coalition of legislators and advocates is calling on the state to protect services that help immigrants stay healthy, fed, and able to get legal support.

The push centers on maintaining immigrant-focused health coverage and related supports, along with programs aimed at food security. Advocates also want California to continue funding legal services that can help people navigate immigration-related issues.
