The Corporations Medi Bill
Big corporations may pay new Medi-Cal premium
Medi-Cal: Fair Share from Big Corporations Act.
Good for everyday people ·
If passed, the state would ask large employers to pay a premium for workers who use Medi-Cal, lowering the tax burden on everyday Californians.
Our take
What we think, in plain words.
Citizens could see lower taxes or more funding for health services, but big firms might push back or raise prices, so public pressure now can shape the final cost‑share plan.
