Watch the debate where 4 Republicans spoke against and 8 Democrats spoke in support of AB 665 (starts 1:25:26, ends 1:51:28)
When the 80-member California State Assembly returned from its 10-day, taxpayer-funded “Spring Recess,” the bill the Democrats made sure to pass was eliminating parental consent for “mental health counseling” for their own child.
I want to publicly commend the four Republicans who stood up to expose the wrong of this bill. They were James Gallagher, Joe Patterson, Devon Mathis, and Tom Lackey. Yet AB 665 still passed after twice as many Democrats stood up to essentially say children know better than parents.
See the updated analysis of AB 665 at our Legislation Center
Yet this blatantly anti-family bill could have lost more votes if all, or nearly all, of the Republicans had stood to say something. I wish more Republicans had stood up to say:
- “Why not allow children ages 11, 10, 9, 8, or 7 to consent?”
- “Under your bill, is there any way a parent can prevent their 12-year-old child from being removed and placed into a ‘residential shelter’?”
- “If a child independently consents to be placed in a ‘residential shelter,’ will the child’s parent be notified?”
- “What legal safeguards are there to prevent non-family adults manipulating or coercing children to ‘consent’?”
- “If parents are legally responsible for their own children, it’s wrong to separate their rights from their responsibility — this bill erases parents.”
It wasn’t just a failure that more Democrats spoke than Republicans, but that half of the 18-member Assembly Republican Caucus actually abstained on voting: Phillip Chen, Laurie Davies, Bill Essayli, Heath Flora, Josh Hoover, Jim Patterson, Kate Sanchez, Marie Waldron, and Greg Wallis. This is a significant lack of conviction!
PLEASE FOLLOW-UP WITH THE REPUBLICANS:
1. Thank the 4 Republicans who spoke for parents and against AB 655. Ask them to keep exposing the Democrats on the floor: James Gallagher (916-319-2003), Joe Patterson (916-319-2005), Devon Mathis (916-319-2033), and Tom Lackey (916-319-2034).
2. Call the 14 Republicans who were silent on AB 665. Tell them they need to speak up to expose anti-family bills (their voices are worth more than their votes): Juan Alanis (916-319-2022), Phillip Chen (916-319-2059), Megan Dahle (916-319-2001), Laurie Davies (916-319-2074), Diane Dixon (916-319-2072), Bill Essayli (916-319-2063), Vince Fong (916-319-2032), Heath Flora (916-319-2009), Josh Hoover (916-319-2007), Jim Patterson (916-319-2008), Kate Sanchez (916-319-2071), Tri Ta (916-319-2070), Marie Waldron (916-319-2075), and Greg Wallis (916-319-2047).

I have long advocated against voting for “any Republican.” Because when you compare a liberal Democrat to a liberal Republican, ONLY the “Republican” can destroy the Republican Party from within.
And that’s what’s happening in California, as wrongly-motivated Republican officeholders and leaders partner with evil. Because when one’s motives are money, position, power, and false significance, it’s all too easy be self-centered and “sell out” to the highest bidder.
What is a good Republican?
SaveCalifornia.com reported to you last month about the Republican-majority city council of Huntington Beach no longer flying the “LGBTQIA+ pride” flag. Because their new ordinance only permits government and military flags on city property. This is highly commendable and a role-model for Republican city councils throughout California.
And nationally, it’s encouraging that, so far, 8 states have prohibited or restricted transsexual surgeries or procedures for minors. Florida just joined Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, Mississippi, where state legislatures have a Republican majority. Republicans who voted yes are real Republicans!
What is a bad Republican?
Even when Republicans are the minority, they should speak up to sway key Democrat legislators and to educate the public. Yet, sadly, that’s not the M.O. of “Republicans” in Sacramento:
1. Silent Republican assemblymembers: Last year, several high-profile anti-family bills narrowly passed the Assembly floor when zero Republicans spoke to expose them. This was despite their offices receiving expert talking points about these truly awful bills.
2. Freshman Republicans selling out in Sacramento: And here in 2023, of the 8 freshmen Republican assemblymembers, several have already voted against family values. Voting yes on child mutilation and eliminating a parent’s right to know (AB 223) were Republicans Diane Dixon and Bill Essayli, while Republican Kate Sanchez voted no. Voting yes to accuse sincerely-religious law enforcement candidates of “biased conduct” (AB 443), when their social media follows a “hate group” (which Leftists call pro-family organizations in favor of Creator God’s design for marriage, sex, and family) were Republicans Juan Alanis and Tom Lackey. Coauthoring ACA 5 to put “marriage equality” on the ballot was Republican Greg Wallis. So far, half of the new Republicans – the RINOs — are selling out!
3. Anti-family, then “pro-family,” then anti-family: On Sunday, March 12, at the California Republican Party convention, 70% of the delegates voted to fully embrace (permanently charter) the “LGBTQIA+”- agenda “Log Cabin Republicans” (founded in 1977 to advocate for homosexual teachers). Eyewitnesses saw Assemblyman Bill Essayli of Riverside County stand and speak in support of honoring and embracing this anti-family group.
The following day, Monday, March 13, Essayli held a district news conference to publicize his amended bill, AB 1314, to require public schools to inform parents in writing if a child “identifies” as “transgender.” Yet the very next day, Tuesday, March 14, Essayli voted yes in committee for the Democrats’ AB 223 to push aside parents by requiring secrecy for minors seeking a legal change of “gender identity.” So he’s against secret “transitions” at school, but OK with them in court?
By advocating for the “LGBTQIA+” agenda at the GOP convention and in committee, Essayli has shown his true colors. His legislation to notify parents of their child’s “transgender” identity won’t survive a Democrat-run committee, but his vote for secret “transitions” in court will likely pass the Democrat-controlled Legislature. “Republican games” like this are sickening, aren’t they?

Please do your part now to EXPOSE the harmful AB 659, which would FORCE 2-3 doses (jabs) of Gardasil (the “HPV vaccine”) upon every teen in California schools — public and private.
SaveCalifornia.com is already helping blow the whistle on how Gardasil doesn’t reliably prevent cervical cancer, causes a high rate of injuries, and is unnecessary since, in California, 12-year-olds can legally “consent” to the shots.
Because our side has already stopped the injurious and obsolete “Covid vaccine” jab for California schoolchildren, we have a chance to stop the awful Gardasil jab too. |
CALL & ASK YOUR FRIENDS TO CALL
STEP 1: To find your California state assemblymember, enter your voter registration address here. Call your own California state assemblymember in his or her district office. Tell the staffer who answers you live in the district and want the Member to:
“Oppose AB 659. Gardasil doesn’t reliably work and has caused many adverse reactions. Parents don’t want it mandated, HPV cannot be spread at school, and children age 12 can already request Gardasil shots — rendering this bill unnecessary. Don’t prevent teenagers from attending school by supporting this bad bill — oppose AB 659!”
Also please SEND your own assemblymember the evidence of Gardasil harms — use his or her web form to open their eyes!
Come to the State Capitol on Tuesday, March 14 to lobby as a group
STEP 2: Leave anonymous voicemails during non-business hours (safe is to call 7pm to 7am) for members of the Assembly Health Committee, which could hear AB 659 as soon as March 14.
Unless you live in a specific assemblymember’s district, DO NOT identify yourself or provide your location, otherwise your message will be “trashed.” So be strategic. Flood them with calls, saying:
“Oppose AB 659. Parents don’t support this and kids don’t need it. Don’t force teens out of school — stop this Big Pharma bill.”
PHONE NUMBERS AND WHAT TO SAY
This committee has 15 members: 11 Democrats and 4 Republicans. To pass bills requires 8 yes votes.
URGE REPUBLICANS TO SPEAK AND EXPOSE AB 659 IN COMMITTEE Tell them, “You need to raise your microphone and speak to expose the harm of AB 659. Voting is not enough — please speak and fight to stop this bad bill!”
Marie Waldron 760-480-7570 | 916-319-2075 Heath Flora 209-599-2112 | 916-319-2009 Vince Fong 661-395-2995 | 916-319-2032 Joe Patterson 916-774-4430 | 916-319-2005
To defeat AB 659, our side needs to pull off at least 4 Democrats:
Tell the Democrats: “Oppose AB 659. Parents don’t want this and kids don’t need it. Don’t force teens out of school. Stop this Bill Pharma bill.”

“Is There Objective Evidence that the Current HPV Vaccination Programs are not Justified?” From the symposium’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. WATCH: 4th International Symposium on Vaccines in Germany (April 2016)
