Assemblymember Ash Kalra’s said his CalCare proposal did not have the support it needed to clear the Assembly.
The powerful nurses’ union claims he “chose to just give up on patients.” Fellow Democrats blamed him for setting off a potential fight within the party during an election year.
His bill, Assembly Bill 1400, needed to pass the lower house by Monday to have a chance at moving forward, but Kalra said he didn’t have the votes. Kalra is under no illusion putting forward a single-payer system next year will be easy, but he’s hopeful more supporters of the idea will be elected to the legislature and thinks it will be easier to win over would-be backers who were reluctant to vote for something so controversial in an election year.
