LOS ANGELES, June 10 (Reuters) - Hundreds of U.S. Marines arrived in the Los Angeles area on Tuesday under orders from President Donald Trump, who has also activated 4,000 National Guard troops to quell protests in the city despite objections from California Governor Gavin Newsom that the deployments are politically motivated. The city has seen days of public protests since the Trump administration launched a series of immigration raids on Friday.

Despite Democratic-Farmer-Labor control of the state Senate, the governor’s office, and half of the House, Republicans forced Democrats to roll back one of their signature accomplishments from the 2023 legislative session: health care for undocumented people. The Legislature passed a bill Monday to repeal undocumented adults’ eligibility for MinnesotaCare, the state-subsidized health insurance program for the working poor. DFL House caucus leader Melissa Hortman joined Republicans in the House to pass the bill. In the Senate, DFL Sens. Grant Hauschild of Hermantown, Ann Rest of New Hope, Robert Kupec of Moorhead and Majority Leader Erin Murphy of St. Paul also voted for the bill. Undocumented children will still be eligible for MinnesotaCare when Gov. Tim Walz signs the bill into law, as promised. Republicans successfully used their leverage — the threat of a government shutdown starting July 1 — to force the Democrats’ hand on an issue that is of supreme importance to GOP lawmakers. “The role of the church – the role of people of faith – is to care for our neighbors.
