According to an Associated Press report, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) recently shared some Medicaid data with the Department of Homeland Security. This included information from several states, including California. At this time, precisely what was shared or how it might be used is unclear.
Here’s a powerful quote from Secretary Johnson that speaks to how we feel, too:
“While the fear in communities across California is real, we continue to serve, to identify and address unmet needs, and to work in partnership with the community... While the experience of this moment can be overwhelming, I am confident that we will also lead, and experience, examples of empathy, mutual aid, solidarity, strength, and collaboration. We are California.”
