      That’s typically the start of any big law change. It almost always come up a few times in various iterations before being decided.

      And I’m sure it will give California some trouble if all neighbour states doesn’t offer healthcare. So maybe it needs to come from the top?

      I don’t think California would be able to handle the influx of people moving to California if they do pass universal healthcare. As a State, they don’t have as much funding as a Federal program would have.
