Description

The California Public Utilities Commision is voting later this month on whether to allow illegal immigrants to use the state’s cellphone subsidy program that makes most cellphone service plans either low cost or free, and self-fund and provide the additional federal subsidies undocumented immigrants are unable to qualify for. If adopted, the new plan would allow individuals to use Mexican voter registration cards, foreign passports, consular identification cards, or AB 60 California drivers licenses issued to individuals not legally in the state to access the subsidies.
