The California Senate Health Committee this afternoon, Wednesday, April 26th, just voted 5-1 with three Senators still to vote to pass SB 562, single-payer, universal health care through their committee.
The bill will next be heard in the Finance Committee, likely sometime in May once a financial study has been completed.
