TAKE ACTION: 3 vetoable, outrageous, anti-family bills

Thursday, September 11, 2025, 9:57 am | Randy Thomasson

With the Democrat-Party-controlled California State Legislature coming to its end of session this weekend, please focus your attention on the Governor’s office.

SaveCalifornia.com has identified 3 anti-family bills that Gavin Newsom, who’s still running for U.S. President, might be motivated to veto: AB 495 legal kidnapping, AB 727 requiring a transsexual group’s phone number on student ID cards, and AB 932 permitting males to invade females’ sports, restrooms, and locker rooms statewide.

TAKE QUICK ACTION: Please be part of a flood of emails and phone calls to Governor Newsom (send a separate webform message for each bill), who has until Oct. 12 to sign or veto bills.

To oppose AB 495, send this suggested message: “Governor Newsom, please veto AB 495. This bad bill is written so broadly, it would allow strangers, using a one-page form, to take physical custody of a child, move that child into their residence, decide the child’s schooling, and decide the child’s medical treatment — without any court oversight, background check, or verification with the child’s parent or legal guardian. Please veto this poorly-drafted bill threatening California parents and their children.”

To oppose AB 727, please send this separate message: “Governor Newsom, please veto AB 727. This invasive bill is not what parents want or children need. Mandating a transgender group’s phone number on student ID cards is inappropriate and offensive. The Trevor Project provides anonymous online forums for adult-child sex via its TrevorSpace chatrooms. AB 727 would drive a wedge between parents and their children — please veto this bad bill.”

To oppose AB 932, please send this separate message: “Governor Newsom, please veto AB 932. This deceptive bill would permit men and boys to invade women’s and girls’ sports teams, locker rooms, and showers. ‘Gender’ in the existing statutes includes ‘gender identity’ and ‘gender expression’ — meaning men and boys could force themselves into women’s and girls’ spaces in every public school, and every city and county in California. Please protect females and VETO this anti-girl bill!”

3 ways to contact Newsom’s legislative staff:

1. Web form: Go to the Governor’s web form, then select “Legislation Issues/Concerns,” then “Leave a Comment,” then select “Con,” then paste in your message, then enter your contact information, then click “submit.”

2. Phone: The Governor’s “constituent services” phones are answered by staffers who are paid to take your message. Call 916-445-2841 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday with a short verbal message: “I’m calling to urge the governor to VETO _____, a bad bill that would _____.”

3. Postal mail: You can write to Gov. Gavin Newsom, 1021 O Street, Suite 9000, Sacramento, CA 95814. Please put on the envelope and your letter (depending on which bad bill you’re opposing), “Re: AB 495 — Veto This Anti-Parent Bill” or “Re: AB 727 — Veto This Bill Promoting Adult-Child Sex.” or “Re: AB 932 — Veto This Anti-Girl Bill.”

Out-of-control, unsustainable union pensions are costing average Californians

Sunday, August 31, 2025, 6:22 pm | Randy Thomasson

Have you noticed how California cities and counties are incrementally costing you more in higher taxes, fees, and bonds, while providing fewer or slower services?

The dirty little secret of California local governments is how their budgets are being eaten up by pension liabilities created by police unions, firefighter unions, and other government unions.

And they’re deceptively passing off the costs to you — telling voters they can’t have a library, or sewer lines, or a functional police or fire department without “increases.” And they do this with without disclosing to voters that these “higher costs” are all due to overly-generous and ever-growing pension contracts with local government unions.

And meanwhile, your local government tax bill keeps going up, and local government services keep decreasing. Does this concern you enough stop “feeding the beast” however you can?

Read these eye-opening California Policy Center articles to understand. Then learn how to resign your union but keep your job and money:

The American public at large, and unionized workers in particular, want a free choice when it comes to affiliating with a union. Around eight in 10 Americans consistently express agreement with the Right to Work principle, and polls of unionized workers show similar sentiment. The truth is, American workers by and large want to make a living free from coercive union power: Most say that they have “no interest at all” in joining a labor union. American workers thrive on freedom, and policymakers who claim to care about them should be prepared to defend workers’ freedoms.

Strategy and action to combat election fraud

Saturday, August 9, 2025, 11:51 am | Randy Thomasson

You want fair and just elections, meaning you can’t vote twice in the same election. And you want constitutional elections, where only U.S. citizens may vote.

We need this nationwide — and there are 3 current efforts worth supporting:

1. President Trump: No illegals to be counted in the 2030 census
2. U.S. Supreme Court: Will hear case challenging race-based districts
3. U.S. Congress: Kevin Kiley’s bill prohibiting redistricting beyond Census years (this would stop Texas and California and all other states from drawing new district boundaries more than once per decade)

Regarding #3, here’s how you can urge your own U.S. House of Representatives member to support H.R. 4889 to “To prohibit States from carrying out more than one Congressional redistricting after a decennial census and apportionment.” Find your House member, then call or email their Washington, D.C. and local offices.)

This is much better than the Republican state of Texas attempting to redraw legislative and congressional district lines (an effort that is moral and constitutional, to eliminate race-based districts), with the resultant rivalry of California and other Democrat-Party-controlled states threatening to redistrict for raw political power to try to regain control of the U.S. House.

As I wrote on July 26, at the start of this controversy:

“The Democrat Party governors of CA, IL, NY, and NJ are scheming for an unconstitutional POWER PLAY — special legislative sessions to gerrymander (unfairly redraw) additional Democrat Party districts to take over the U.S. House of Representatives in 2026. They say they’re only reacting to the Texas Legislature. However, the Texas redistricting plan is BASED ON PRINCIPLE to correct blatantly unconstitutional, racially-based gerrymandering from the past.” 

“But to put a stop to the Democrat Party governors’ so-called “justified” power grabs, Texas Republicans should abandon their effort, and wait for the Trump Administration to pursue a U.S. Supreme Court decision prohibiting racially-drawn congressional districts nationwide.”

SaveCalifornia.com’s strategy is not wimpy, but wise. For instead of provoking Democrats to win back the U.S. House of Representatives, it would be much better to ban race-based districts nationwide via a U.S. Supreme Court ruling, which would positively impact all 50 states.

Meanwhile, President Trump banning illegals from the upcoming census estimating local populations of U.S. House districts could result in Democrat Party politicians losing between 20 and 30 House seats.

Bottom line, this is the time to fight for election integrity — so get energized and fight for it!

Dishonest scales are an abomination to the LORD,
But a just weight is His delight.
