Republicans say California using loophole to get fed funds for immigrant healthcare

The Democrats want to abolish the provision of a great beautiful bill of invoices (Obba) before the government reopening the government, but the Republicans argue that the line element they want to be removed allowed California to use a “space”, allowing the state to withdraw from the fundal government to help pay the cost of health care for illegal immigrants.
