SACRAMENTO (KRON) – President Trump taking aim at California’s plan to provide health care coverage to children and young adults, regardless of immigration status.

Assembly Budget Chairman Phil Ting says lawmakers knew this could be a fight, but he says it’s  a fight worth having.

“We’re not going to be bullied by the president. Our people, our voters feel a strong sense that we should be insuring everyone here, if we can and that’s the goal. We’re going to continue on that course, cause that’s the right thing to do,” Ting said.
