Will California’s Budget Crisis Get Worse?
The Future of California’s Healthcare System at Stake
According to CALMATTERS, California’s budget is in trouble. A recent deal to raise money and help people with healthcare was supposed to fix the problem. But the deal fell apart when the governor realized that the state was still facing big problems. The final budget plan uses a lot of the healthcare money, leaving people wondering what will happen next.
There is a big question about whether to make a special healthcare tax permanent. This tax would raise money to help Americans with healthcare, but it would also limit how the money can be used. The governor does not want this tax to be made permanent. He says it would make it hard for him to make smart decisions about the state’s money.

The Americans who are trying to make the tax permanent say that it’s important to help people who don’t have healthcare. They think that the tax money should be used to help these people, not just to fix the state’s budget problems. The governor and other groups are fighting against making the tax permanent. They think it would limit the governor’s ability to make decisions about how to use the state’s money.
