Health care for all in California?

In California, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger has just won approval from legislators for a major health-care reform which will expand coverage to most of the state's uninsured. It took nearly a year of sometimes fractious haggling, but legislators in America's most populous state have done what many predicted they could not They have approved a bill to extend health insurance to virtually everyone in the nation's most populous state - all 36 million of them.

True, the measure has still to be approved by the state Senate and ratified in a popular vote, but it is nonetheless a considerable achievement.
