   California Gov. Gavin Newsom, a Democrat, is proposing freezing undocumented   
   adult enrollment in full-scope Medi-Cal, California's Medicaid program, a fact   
   sheet the governor's office provided to Fox News Digital indicates.   
      
   The document notes that the proposed freeze would take effect "no sooner than   
   January 1, 2026," and would apply "to new adult applicants over age 19." People   
   would not "be kicked off their health care," according to the document.   
      
   It also notes that the Golden State governor is proposing a $100 per month   
   premium for Medi-Cal enrollees 19 and up with "unsatisfactory immigration   
   status," which "refers to people whose immigration status makes them ineligible   
   for federally funded Medicaid, including people with lawful status and the   
   undocumented" — this would take effect Jan. 1, 2027, under the proposal.   
      
   The proposed budgetary moves, which would need to clear state legislature, are   
   being partially blamed on President Donald Trump.   
      
   "Trump’s pendulum swings on tariffs have slowed the economy and weakened   
   state revenues by a staggering $16 billion," the document declares.   
      
   Newsom is to blame for ‘colossal feces’ in San Francisco: Emily

   Newsom "refuses to turn his back on hardworking Californians, especially when   
   it comes to their basic health care needs," the release states. "But because of   
   the $16 billion Trump Slump and higher-than-expected health care utilization,   
   the state must take difficult but necessary steps to ensure fiscal stability   
   and preserve the long-term viability of Medi-Cal for all Californians."
