So that your GOP representative can’t deceive you, SaveCalifornia.com presents our RINO (Republican In Name Only) report, spotlighting registered Republican state legislators who in 2023 have supported evil Democrat-authored bills.

Our last RINO report was this summer during the California State Legislature’s month-long, paid vacation. This latest update includes the final floor votes from early September.

You’ve got to ask yourself — with “Republicans” like this, do they deserve your support?

9 “Republicans” in the California State Assembly voted for Democrat bills promoting abortion (baby-killing) or the “LGBTQIA+” agenda or both:

• Greg Wallis of Bermuda Dunes: AB 659, AB 5, AB 223, AB 352, AB 443, AB 492, AB 576, AB 598, AB 957, AB 1078, AB 1194, AB 1432, HR 33, ACA 5, SB 345, SB 385, SB 760

• Juan Alanis of Modesto: AB 5, AB 352, AB 443, AB 492, AB 598, AB 1194, AB 1432, HR 33, ACA 5, SB 541, SB 760

• Marie Waldron of Escondido: AB 5, AB 443. HR 33, ACA 5, SB 58, SB 541, SB 729, SB 760

• Laurie Davies of Laguna Niguel: ACA 5, AB 1194, SB 541

• Diane Dixon of Newport Beach: AB 223, ACA 5

• Bill Essayli of Riverside: AB 223, ACA 5

• Josh Hoover of Folsom: AB 5, ACA 5

 Phillip Chen of Yorba Linda: ACA 5, AB 443

• Devon Mathis of Porterville: ACA 5

In addition to Democrat bills promoting baby-killing and the “LGBTQIA+” agenda:

• Voting in favor of the Democrats’ radical “recreational drug” bill, SB 58, were Bill EssayliHeath Flora, and Marie Waldron

• Voting in favor of SB 596 giving chairpersons of liberal school boards the power to subjectively claim pro-family citizens speaking at public meetings have caused “substantial disorder,” so that you’ll be arrested and charged with a misdemeanor crime, were Diane DixonJosh Hoover, and Greg Wallis

• Voting in favor of AB 1352 to permit liberal school board majorities to remove a pro-family school board member from office were Juan AlanisPhillip ChenMegan Dahle, Laurie DaviesDiane DixonBill EssayliHeath FloraVince FongJames GallagherJosh HooverTom LackeyJim PattersonJoe PattersonKate SanchezTri TaMarie WaldronGreg Wallis

2 “Republicans” in the California State Senate voted for Democrat bills promoting baby-killing or “LGBTQIA+” or both:

• Scott Wilk of Santa Clarita: AB 352, AB 659, AB 1194, ACA 5

• Rosilicie Ochoa Bogh of Yucaipa: SR 33, SB 760, AB 1194

In addition:

• Both Wilk and Ochoa Bogh supported AB 1352 to permit liberal school boards to boot off conservative members

• The sole Republican voting in favor of the Democrats’ SB 274, largely eliminating government-school suspensions or expulsions of disruptive, defiant “students,” was Brian Dahle of Bieber

Conclusion: Of the 8 Republicans in the 40-member California State Senate and the 18 Republicans in the 80-member California State Assembly, unlike constitutional and often Christian Republican fighters of past decades, none today can be counted on to use their most valuable asset — their voice — to consistently stand and speak to expose the harm of immoral. ungodly Democrat-authored bills. It’s a shame, because when you’re in the minority party in the Legislature, your voice matters much more than your votes.

Obviously, with so many Republican legislators supporting anti-family or otherwise harmful bills, and with none of the current crop of California Republican state legislators caring enough to regularly stand and expose immoral Democrat bills, there’s a crying need for concerned citizens and biblical pastors to recruit constitutional fighters, who know their main job in Sacramento isn’t money, popularity, or comfort, but steadfastly, lovingly, and truthfully speaking in committee and on the floor to expose the harm of Democrat Party bills. Stop accepting deceptive crumbs from mute Republicans or from Republicans who vote for harmful Democrat bills!

I believe there are more instances of the abridgement of freedom of the people by gradual and silent encroachments of those in power than by violent and sudden usurpations.

ALERT: Demand Speaker Mike Johnson investigate and expose election fraud

Wednesday, December 6, 2023, 7:52 am | Randy Thomasson

This alert is so needed and can be totally effective.

Because it’s all under the control of the constitutional, Christian speaker of the U.S. House, who was very concerned about election fraud in the 2000 presidential election.

Since January 2023 when the Republicans took back control of the U.S. House of Representatives, SaveCalifornia.com has been urging the creation of a House subcommittee to investigate and expose election fraud. But then-speaker Kevin McCarthy of Bakersfield just wasn’t interested (he had blamed President Donald Trump for Jan. 6).

Yet now, with McCarthy ousted, our chance to restore America’s democratic republic has massively increased with Speaker Mike Johnson. Without consulting any RINOs, he can authorize a subcommittee and name a chairman, with the high calling of investigating allegations of election fraud in battleground states and other states.

Mike Johnson can and must do this now, so that hearings can begin in January. If enough evidence of election fraud is uncovered, it can motivate and unite Republican-controlled legislatures in 26 states, and perhaps also in the divided Pennsylvania lower house, to introduce and pass needful reforms.

It’s time for conservatives to lobby Mike Johnson. Now adding to SaveCalifornia.com’s public call is a Nov. 24 public letter to Speaker Johnson from a conservative, constitutional Republican group in Florida, which generated conservative media coverage on Nov. 29.

Seize this opportunity for action. As constitutional conservatives noticed in 2020 and 2022, the elimination of one-day voting, rising opposition to hand-counting of ballots, and the advent of universal mail-in voting, unmanned drop boxes, alterable computers, along with unconstitutional bureaucrats, have all opened the door to election fraud, which is crying out to be investigated, exposed, and overcome in a very public way — and quickly.

For, without honest elections, constitutional conservatives are losing hope — and this pressing problem needs to be exposed now and fixed in early 2024.

PLEASE TAKE IMMEDIATE ACTION
Urge new U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson to investigate election fraud, which he has the authority and ability to order. A Republican subcommittee to investigate election fraud must be a top priority. Exposing election fraud as real will motivate more Republican state legislatures to write and pass bills to reform their election processes, including eliminating widescale mail-in ballots.

STEP 1: Please call Mike Johnson’s Washington, DC office at 202-225-2777 to easily leave this simple message: “I’m calling to urge Mike Johnson to create an election fraud subcommittee to publicly investigate and expose this huge problem.”

STEP 2: Share this important alert with friends in other states, encouraging them to call Mike Johnson’s office. The more lobbying calls from more states, the better!

STEP 3: Copy and paste portions of this alert as comments on popular conservative social media pages. Conservatives everywhere should be on Mike Johnson like white on rice!

STEP 4: If you’re part of a conservative group, ask them to write a public letter similar to that from Lee County, Florida calling upon Speaker Mike Johnson to authorize an election fraud subcommittee. Send it to Johnson and to conservative media, including The GateWay Pundit. Let’s get the ball rolling to restore honest, accurate elections!

I have just called President Trump to say this: “Stay strong and keep fighting, sir! The nation is depending upon your resolve. We must exhaust every available legal remedy to restore Americans’ trust in the fairness of our election system.

Momentum for real school choice in California

Saturday, November 25, 2023, 3:05 pm | Randy Thomasson

When Democrat politicians Gavin Newsom, his attorney general Rob Bonta, and state schools chief Tony Thurmond attacked parents’ God-given rights this summer, more parents understood the only way to rescue their kids is by exiting the government schools.

So expect more California families to homeschool! Because each year, an increasing number of parents are realizing Democrat-run schools are bad. Look at these stats:

On Oct. 31, the Washington Post reported California homeschooling increased a whopping 78% between the 2017 and 2022 school years. What momentum to rescue defenseless boys and girls!

And California’s most recent stats (updated Nov. 8) demonstrate public support for real school choice is growing:

  • 70% of adults and 75% of parents of school-aged children support the idea of education savings accounts (a synonym for vouchers).
  • 59% of parents of school-aged children want 1 or more days a week of home-based education for their kids.
  • 48% of parents of school-aged children would choose homeschooling or private school if they could afford it.
  • 35% of adults say the main purpose of education is to instill “values, moral character, religious virtues”

And a thrilling trend nationally — 2023 has been the year of universal (full) school choice. Rejoice that this year, EIGHT states have either created a new universal choice program or expanded an existing program to include all students.

As reported in late September by Ed Choice:

North Carolina joins Iowa, Utah, Arkansas, Florida, Indiana, Oklahoma, and Ohio in creating new universal choice programs this year or expanding existing choice programs to include all or nearly all students. They join Arizona and West Virginia, where universal programs previously existed. Today, some 36% of students nationwide are eligible for a private choice program, a 60% increase from just two years ago.

This national momentum for real school choice (receiving back money for private school or homeschooling) will create a better national character and will eventually bring private school choice to California.

Despite the lying Establishment defeating universal school choice on the California ballot in 1994 and 2000, parental discontent with government-controlled “education” has kept growing. And it might be near the “tipping point.” Because over time, California parents and grandparents are going to want what children in other states enjoy — the financial means to exit bad schools!

TAKE ACTION:

1. Rescue your own children and grandchildren with the help of our special site, RescueYourChild.com.

2. Tell others how parents need to be able to spend their own tax money on the school of their choice.

Train up a child in the way he should go,
And when he is old he will not depart from it.
