ALERT: Can the harmful Gardasil bill be stopped?

Thursday, May 18, 2023, 12:32 pm | Randy Thomasson

As expected, the tyrannical Gardasil bill (AB 659) has passed the Democrats’ Assembly Appropriations Committee and has been sent to the Assembly floor.

Can this awful bill pushing unneeded, ineffective, harmful jabs upon children at both public and private schools — including church schools — be stopped? Perhaps. Here’s why:

1. AB 659 is blatantly deceptive: As amended April 12, AB 659 falsely threatens pre-teens, teens, and college students by purporting “it is the public policy of the state” that you “are expected” to be jabbed with Gardasil — when, legally, these shots would not be “required.” AB 659 is dishonest and misleading!

2. The bill had trouble being scheduled for committee: After being deceptively amended in order to pass the Health Committee, AB 659 languished for two weeks in the Appropriations Committee, having two hearings in a row “postponed.”

3. A key Democrat has abstained twice: Akilah Weber of San Diego, an OB-GYN, purposefully abstained twice in committee — on May 3 in the Health Committee and on May 17 in the Appropriations Committee. She apparently doesn’t want an HPV mandate and doesn’t like AB 659’s deception.

Bottom line, this bill is a Frankensteinian mess that never should have passed one committee, let alone two. Honest legislators should be embarrassed to vote for it.

So, because of bad substance and bad style, AB 659 could be stopped if enough Democrats mimic Weber’s abstentions on the Assembly floor.

Will you participate? With your help, AB 659 might be defeated on the Assembly floor before June 2, the last day for bills to pass their house of origin.

PLEASE ACT TODAY

Step 1: Call or email your own California state assemblymember. Confirm who’s yours here. When you make contact, identify yourself, since you live in the district. Urge your assemblymember to “Oppose AB 659, which falsely claims risky Gardasil shots are mandated. Stop misleading children and young adults and their families — kill this bad bill.”

If your assemblymember is a Republican, please add, “You need to stand and speak on the Assembly floor. Parents are counting on you to expose AB 659.”

Step 2: Leave your anonymous, afterhours voicemail messages (weekdays 7pm to 8am and all weekend) for Akilah Weber at her two offices, 619-465-7903 and 916-319-2079. In your genuinely appreciative recorded message, say, “Thank you for not supporting AB 659. On the floor, please stand and speak against this misleading bill.”

The Assembly floor vote on AB 659 could be as soon as the afternoon of Monday, May 22.

Before Gardasil my daughter was an outgoing, super funny, confident, soccer athlete, practicing 3-4 hrs a day. She planned to play HS soccer and move on to college soccer. Autumn was a free spirit and so full of life. Her love for animals and passion to save the mistreated drove her to want to open her own animal shelter. She had dreams, goals and a plan. That is until she had the Gardasil vaccine. In January of 2010 she began the series of Gardasil shots. Her second shot was on 3/31 and by 5/10 we had her back to the doctors due to shortness of breath, along with horrible rib and back pain. From then on, our nightmare just kept getting worse.

Why the harmful, tyrannical, deceptive Gardasil jab bill is advancing

Wednesday, April 19, 2023, 9:35 am | Randy Thomasson

Thank you to you and all who followed SaveCalifornia.com by participating with our straightforward, principled message of “kill the bill.” You are a steadfast pro-family advocate who stayed true, when others faltered.

The hard lesson of AB 659, the tyrannical Gardasil bill, passing its first committee after being successfully stalled for two whole months, is never amend a bad bill. 

“Never amend a bad bill” has been a proven rule for family-values activists for decades. Yet the awful AB 659 passed its first important hurdle April 18 because too many ignored this important ethic. Because when a bad bill is in trouble, amending it make it easier for the bad bill to pass.

The big mistake that helped AB 659 pass committee was the “Freedom Angels” (Tara Thornton and Denise Aguilar) actually made a deal to remove their opposition when the Democrat bill author replaced mandatory-shot language with deceptive, threatening, coercive language, reading, “it is the public policy of the state” that students “are expected” to receive Gardasil shots before advancing to 8th grade or enrolling in college.

Sadly, the bill author had a whole week to tell the wavering Democrats on the committee the “mandate” and the opposition had been “removed.”

As Aguilar said on her April 18 Instagram, “Freedom Angels was called into the author’s office last week, stating that if the mandate was removed, would Freedom Angels remove our opposition. We agreed to this because we needed to remove the mandate. So that’s why I was not at the podium opposing it. We came to an agreement, if the mandate was removed, then Tara and I would not oppose the bill. So it was like a muzzle on us.”

So what now? The tyrannical, harmful, deceptive AB 659, which is still a functional “mandate,” coercing painful Gardasil jabs upon children in public and private school (including all boys and including church schools) and upon UC, CSU, and community college students up to age 26 now goes to the Assembly Appropriations Committee on its way to the Assembly floor.

Real-life stories: Lives destroyed by Gardasil

Do not be envious of evil men,
Nor desire to be with them;
For their heart devises violence,
And their lips talk of troublemaking.

If you faint in the day of adversity,
Your strength is small.

NEW ALERT: Oppose the still-bad AB 659 (Gardasil jabs)

Sunday, April 16, 2023, 5:31 pm | Randy Thomasson

If you want to prevent children and young adults from autoimmune injuries and worse, please act now — before Tuesday 1:30pm!

Because that’s when the April 12 amended version of AB 659 will be finally heard in the Democrat-controlled Assembly Health Committee.

The amended AB 659 falsely threatens families — PLEASE CALL NOW! DON’T LET PRE-TEENS, TEENS, COLLEGIANS THINK THEY HAVE TO TAKE A RISKY JAB!

Gardasil has injured and killed many. Yet Big Pharma Democrats are still pushing it.

As amended April 12, AB 659 falsely threatens pre-teens, teens, and college students by purporting “it is the public policy of the state” that you “are expected” to be jabbed with Gardasil — when these shots are not required.

HERE ARE THE DETAILS OF THE LATEST VERSION OF AB 659:

SEC. 3. Section 120336 is added to the Health and Safety Code, to read:

(a) It is the public policy of the state that pupils are expected to be fully immunized against human papillomavirus (HPV) before admission or advancement to the 8th grade level of any private or public elementary or secondary school.
(b) Upon a pupil’s admission or advancement to the 6th grade level, the governing authority shall submit to the pupil and their parent or guardian a notification containing a statement about the state’s public policy described in subdivision (a) and advising that the pupil be fully immunized against HPV before admission or advancement to the 8th grade level.

SEC. 4. Section 120390 of the Health and Safety Code is amended to read:

The department, in consultation with the Trustees of the California State University, the Regents of the University of California, and the Board of Governors of the California Community Colleges, as applicable, shall adopt and enforce all regulations necessary to carry out this chapter.

SEC. 5. Section 120390.6 is added to the Health and Safety Code, to read:

4th International Symposium on Vaccines in Germany (April 2016), Session 7: “Is There Objective Evidence that the Current HPV Vaccination Programs are not Justified?” (see video)
From the session’s conclusion:
Q: Is it ethical to put young women at risk of death or a disabling autoimmune disease at a pre-adolescent age for a vaccine that has not yet prevented a single case of cervical cancer, a disease that may develop 20-30 years after exposure to HPV, when the same can be prevented with regular Pap screening which carries no risks?
A: We don’t know if it can offer any long-term clinical benefit for a disease that is safely preventable through other methods.
