It would tax mega corporations who don\u2019t provide health insurance and leave employees\u2019 care up to the state. Instead, it directs legislative staff to prepare bills for the Legislature to consider in 2027.<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>The Senate budget plan relies on that tax to avoid some cuts this year, predicting it would generate as much as $8 billion.<\/p>\n<p><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>But a bill increasing taxes would need two-thirds support in both chambers. Newsom gave little indication he backed the idea. Though the proposal has been in the public eye for months, the governor\u2019s updated May budget plan proposed different efforts to raise revenue \u2014 most notably a sales tax on software programs and capping corporate tax credits.<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>Assembly budget writers include a number of efforts to soften federal healthcare cuts. They propose a $250 million fund to support public hospitals, and another $250 million to help counties deal with increased emergency room visits from people predicted to lose regular health coverage under the federal cuts.
