Xavier Becerra on Dealing with California Health Care Fraud: ‘Trump Is the Problem’

EXCERPT:

BECERRA: “Trump is a problem because Trump took a trillion dollars out of the health care system, out of the Medicare, or excuse me, the Medicaid and the Medi-Cal system. Trump is now trying to deprive California of another billion dollars in health care for Medi-Cal. He doesn't have the right to do that. You still have to prove that there's been fraud and abuse. He is in advance taking money, even though he hasn't proven in court what he's done, so we should go after him, the way I had to do over 120 times when I was attorney general. We will fight to get those tax subsidies under the Affordable Care Act back for California families. We will fight to make sure we get the money that we sent to the federal treasury for Medi-Cal in California, because otherwise, 3 million Californians are in jeopardy of losing their health care. We won't let Trump get in our way, and whether it's the Trump gas tax, because he's increased the price by going to war in Iran, or whether it's the tariffs that are taxed, we're going to fight against Trump.”
