This is disappointing but unfortunately not at all surprising:

So, no single-payer system for California, at least this legislative session. Even with a Democratic supermajority, a Democratic governor, etc.

It’s so weird how this just keeps happening.

California is the most liberal state in the Union, with the most robust economy in the Union. Seems like the Democrats are doing something right.

And yet UH dies before it even gets on the operating table every single time.

I’m sure there is no possible way this could blow up in the Democrats faces if they try this.

I imagine the decision to means test here is because they don't want blowback from other marginalized groups. The justification given by panel members voting for not requiring ancestry was basically there is a lot of systemic racism that affects all African Americans (which is true), but that is also just as true of latinos in California, who wouldn't be getting any money from the state.

There is an easy solution to that which is even less likely for the Democrats to do.

Schiff voter here. His poise, persuasiveness, and intelligence during the impeachment trails won me over. I think he has the charisma and character to be a good leader for the party. His positions on the issues are quite reasonable.

I guess I'm a stupid boomer with an ugly face and a big butt and my butt smells and... I like to kiss my own butt.

“His positions on the issues are quite reasonable.” I would say his stance on Israel is not reasonable in any way.
