For the love of God and people created in His image, SaveCalifornia.com is reminding voters to do the hard math in California’s U.S. Senate contest. Because, in California’s “jungle primary,” only two candidates will advance to the general election. And every indication is that will be either be a Democrat and a Republican, or two Democrats.
If you don’t want the latter scenario, then the real question for California conservatives is: Is Republican Steve Garvey acceptable? That’s the question we unpack for you at our SaveCalifornia.com Pro-Family Election Center. Please visit and urge your friends to visit!
“For which of you, intending to build a tower, does not sit down first and count the cost, whether he has enough to finish it — lest, after he has laid the foundation, and is not able to finish, all who see it begin to mock him, saying, ‘This man began to build and was not able to finish.’ Or what king, going to make war against another king, does not sit down first and consider whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand? Or else, while the other is still a great way off, he sends a delegation and asks conditions of peace.” Jesus Christ, Savior of the world and God in the flesh, in Luke 14:28-32
Ten years of increased drug and serial theft crimes across California has taken its toll on the state’s residents and businesses. Because of Proposition 47, there is no accountability when it comes to these crimes, theft is underreported and some stores are even told not to report theft crimes. But help is on the way – a proposed ballot initiative to amend Prop. 47 is currently collecting signatures for the November 2024 ballot.
Proposition 47, was passed by tragically misinformed voters in 2014, and flagrantly titled “The Safe Neighborhoods and Schools Act” by then Attorney General Kamala Harris, which reduced a host of serious felonies to misdemeanors, including drug crimes, date rape, and all thefts under $950, even for repeat offenders who steal every day.
Prop. 47 also decriminalized drug possession from a felony to a misdemeanor, removed law enforcement’s ability to make an arrest in most circumstances, as well as removing judges’ ability to order drug rehabilitation programs rather than incarceration.
The initiatives would increase drug crime and theft penalties and allow a new class of crime to be called treatment-mandated felony, which gives the offender the option to participate in drug and mental health treatment.

JANUARY 30 UPDATE:If you called, you and others helped stop this radical, pro-crime bill! AB 742 did not come up for an Assembly floor vote before adjournment of a brief floor session. And tomorrow (January 31), is the legislative deadline for two-year bills to pass their house of origin, and the Assembly isn’t meeting that day. So AB 742 is dead!
From policemag.com (1/25/24): Former police officer and K-9 unit member, Ronald Davis, says he’s puzzled by the push for this legislation. “Our dogs are there … because they help protect and defend,” he said. “Yes, they do bite people. But what the people trying to get this bill passed don’t tell you is how often they stop suspects with weapons who would have otherwise harmed an officer.”
He told the California Globe, “I don’t see how this can be passed. So many people came out against it last year, and unless they make big changes, it will entice no one else. People know how important police dogs are.”
Here’s our January 19 post with our anti-crime, pro-police-dog alert (again, thank you for following SaveCalifornia.com’s lead and calling — we knew this was a moral opportunity for reasonable Californians!):
Some Democrat Party politicians want to prohibit police dogs taking down criminal suspects. But you can help stop them — right now!
But first, to convince you that most two-year bills (bills that couldn’t pass last year) can be defeated this year, recognize and rejoice in the defeat of the invasive, pansy ban on pre-teen tackle football leagues:
Newsom – who knows he’s getting beat up nationally as being “too liberal” to be the Democrat Party nominee for president – is highly motivated to try to “improve” his image, in this case, to families nationwide who like youth tackle football.
What these radical Democrat bills show you – including the ones passed by California’s Democrat-Party-controlled State Legislature and signed by Democrat Party Gov. Gavin Newsom over the past several years – is that Democrat politicians have an insatiable lust to invade every space in order to control everyone and everything.
They are the anti-liberty party, otherwise known as New Communist Democrats and unconstitutional tyrants.
TAKE ACTION: And now, please oppose a pro-crime bill prohibiting the use of police dogs from helping police to apprehend criminal suspects.
AB 742 has until Jan. 31 to pass the Democrat-controlled State Assembly. This bad bill would prohibit unleashing police dogs to find or take down a suspect.
AB 742 is pro-crime because it stops the apprehending of criminal suspects. Because if a suspect is hiding from or running away from police, a police dog can find him and hold him.
Yet the “defund the police” Democrat Party politicians want to straitjacket police dogs and let criminal suspects get away. Police across America are shaking their heads over this.
The present danger is AB 742 is already on the Assembly floor, on the “inactive file,” where it’s been for more than 8 months. And it can be brought up for a vote any time the Democrat-controlled Assembly meets the remainder of this month.
PLEASE ACT NOW:Call and email your own state assemblymember. Tell him or her, “Oppose AB 742 — stop siding with criminals!” And yes, if your assemblymember’s voicemail is “on,” you can leave a weekend message.
