According to recent data, California receives a significant amount of federal funds. For the fiscal year 2025-26, federal funds are expected to make up over one-third of California's state budget, totaling more than $170 billion. This represents approximately 34.6% of the state's total budget. These funds support various services including Medi-Cal, education, and workforce development among others.
Here's a breakdown based on the available information:
Health and Human Services: Approximately $134.9 billion of the federal funds are allocated to support health and human services in California, with a significant portion, $112.1 billion, going towards Medi-Cal.
Other Public Services: Beyond health services, federal funds also support labor and workforce development ($8.6 billion), higher education ($7.3 billion), transportation ($6.7 billion), and other public services like environmental protection, the state court system, and corrections ($5.1 billion).
This data is sourced from information published by organizations like the California Budget & Policy Center and the Los Angeles Times, which discuss the dependency of California on federal funds for its state budget and public programs.
What do you expect from a state that dedicates 60% of its income on education, but has one of the lowest success rates for student literacy?
Welp, can’t wait until Trump axes the DOE
Isn’t there talk of California seceding from the union, hinting their wealth would be a loss for the remaining states? Seems to be the opposite?
Wait until we all see how much of that goes into the pockets of the Pelosis, the Feinstein the Browns and the Newsoms.....
And the Getty’s
How far we Californians have fallen. Once one of the highest flying, richest and freest of all the states, we are now the sickly canary reporting our story from deep down in the mines of socialism.
God willing, we'll MAGA with CA included, and we shall rise again!
