The California government is considering a plan to subsidize home and cell phone bills for illegal immigrants.
The proposal would eliminate requiring social security numbers for the California LifeLine program, which provides phone bill discounts for low-income residents.
The California Public Utilities Commission reportedly was going to get rid of that requirement a decade ago but did not follow through.
The proposal is scheduled for a formal agency vote Sept. 26.
“If an undocumented Californian falls on hard times, they should benefit from this program, just like every other Californian,” said utilities commission President Alice Reynolds.
