Answer :

Final answer:

Proposition 187 did not terminate all emergency healthcare for undocumented immigrants who did not carry their own insurance.

Explanation:

The correct answer is option B. That is, proposition 187 did not terminate all emergency healthcare for undocumented immigrants who did not carry their own insurance. While proposition 187, also known as 'Save Our State', did establish policies to prevent undocumented immigrants from using state services like education and non-emergency healthcare, it did not terminate emergency healthcare even for those without insurance. This service was maintained because denying emergency healthcare is in violation of federal law (Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act-EMTALA- ), which mandates emergency care for all who need it, regardless of their legal status or ability to pay.
