Our take on California’s 10 props on the fall ballot

Saturday, July 6, 2024, 7:49 am | Randy Thomasson
After delaying a few days so that Newsom & Co.’s fake “crime bill” could get on the ballot (it didn’t), California’s Secretary of State late on July 3 assigned proposition numbers to the 10 measures officially on the November 2024 ballot.

Here’s your first look at them with SaveCalifornia.com’s draft descriptions (you’re going to really want to vote NO on Prop. 3 and really want to vote YES on Prop. 36):

NO Prop. 2 wasting more taxpayer money on the wasteful, dumbing down, politically-correct K-12 government schools and community colleges. This $10 BILLION bond would cost much more than that with high interest, and is more expensive than a direct tax.

NO Prop. 3 permitting polygamy, bigamy, child marriages, incestuous marriages (and even people-animal and people-object marriages) by superseding all marriage statutes with a very broad and subjective state constitutional amendment claiming a “fundamental right..to marry” whomever and whatever (the sky’s the limit). Prop. 3 won’t make any practical difference on same-sex “marriage,” yet by superseding all existing marriage definitions, standards, and limits, this radical constitutional amendment would open up “Pandora’s Box.”

NO Prop. 4 funding another lie-based, subsidization of environmental wacko groups via a $10 BILLION bond, costing even more with interest, more expensive than a direct tax.

NO Prop. 5 permitting higher property taxes (attacking Prop. 13 from 1978) by lowering the “vote threshold from 66.67% to 55% for local special taxes and bond measures to fund housing projects and public infrastructure.”

NO Prop. 6 calling it “slavery” to make prisoners do work they don’t wish to do.

NO Prop. 32 increasing the state minimum wage to $18/hr. for all California employees (killing even more jobs and businesses).

NO Prop. 33 permitting local governments to enact rent control (resulting in less available rental housing, as landlords seeking income sell their rental houses and duplexes).

YES Prop. 34 requiring the ultra-left-wing, politically-active AIDS Healthcare Foundation of Los Angeles “to spend 98% of revenues from the federal discount prescription drug program on direct patient care.”

NO Prop. 35 taxing health care providers to pay for government the California state government’s “Medi-Cal” program (further increasing insurance rates for the rest of us).

YES Prop. 36 increasing penalties for theft and fentanyl possession, and repealing the worst parts of Prop. 47 from 2014.

Always vote for principle, though you may vote alone,
and you may cherish the sweetest reflection that your vote is never lost.

URGENT: Demand Newsom veto anti-parent AB 1955

Friday, July 5, 2024, 11:32 am | Randy Thomasson

To whom do children belong – parents or the State?

On a fast track, AB 1955 forcing government schools to hide from parents the sexual confusion of their own child is on the desk of Democrat Party Governor Gavin Newsom. It’s an “LGBTQIA+” groomer’s dream!

AB 1955 would hide from parents their own child’s sexual confusion. It would prohibit K through 12 “public” schools from informing parents of (quote) “a pupil’s sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression…without the pupil’s consent.”

PLEASE TAKE ACTION: Because Big Democrat Gavin Newsom has more motivation to keep running for president, and because he hasn’t promised to sign AB 1955, please email and call Newsom TODAY to demand he veto this radical anti-parent bill.

Newsom received this horrible bill on July 3 at 3 p.m. He has 12 days — until July 15 — to sign or veto this anti-parent, anti-local-control bill harming children inwardly and outwardly.

STEP 1: Call Newsom’s office at 916-445-2841 (M-F 9a-5p). Tell the staffer who answers (who’s paid to take your message) that you want Newsom to veto AB 1955.

STEP 2: Send Newsom an email message. Here’s how:

1. Go to this page: https://www.gov.ca.gov/contact
2. Under “What is your request or comment about?” select “An Active Bill”
3. Under that is “What specific bill?” select “Select a bill” and click it
4. Scroll down to AB 1955.
5. Under “What is the purpose of your message” click “Leave a Comment” and click “Next”
6. Under “If applicable, what is your stance on this topic?” click “Con”
7. Under “What is your message for the Governor?” change “An Active Bill” to “Veto anti-parent AB 1955”
8. Type your message, type your message, such as “Veto AB 1955. This bill is anti-parent, anti-child, and anti-local-control. Parents deserve to know, so they can love their child!”

“Whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to sin, it would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were drowned in the depth of the sea.”

URGENT: Demand Newsom veto anti-parent bill AB 1955

Saturday, June 29, 2024, 11:33 am | Randy Thomasson

Because Gavin Newsom now has more motivation to keep running for president, and since he hasn’t promised to sign AB 1955, please email and call to demand he veto this radical anti-parent, anti-local-schools bill.

Here’s Newsom’s web form, with SaveCalifornia.com’s easy instructions:

AB 1955 by homosexual activist Chris Ward of San Diego and 11 other homosexual activists, plus two other Democrat Party legislators, was “gutted and amended” in late May to legally prohibit any government-school employee or contractor from disclosing “any information related to a pupil’s sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression to any other person without the pupil’s consent.”

This outrageous bill is against parents, children, science, and health. It is being pushed because anti-parental-rights Democrat Party Attorney General of California Rob Bonta has no legal basis in current state law to sue pro-family school boards that have parental rights policies for sexually-confused children.

AB 1955, as amended May 22, according to the Democrat-run Legislative Counsel:

1. Would provide “resources” promoting “LGBTQ” as natural and beneficial to “LGBTQ” children and their parents and guardians:

“This bill would require the State Department of Education to develop resources or, as appropriate, update existing resources, for supports and community resources for the support of parents, guardians, and families of LGBTQ pupils and strategies to increase support for LGBTQ pupils, as specified.”

2. Would ban any school within California’s K-12 “public” school system from informing parents of “a pupil’s sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression…without the pupil’s consent” and would prohibit K-12 government schools from punishing an employee who “supported a pupil” by grooming children via pro-“LGBQT” “rights,” “work activities,” or “certain instruction”:

“This bill would prohibit school districts, county offices of education, charter schools, and the state special schools, and a member of the governing board or body of those educational entities, from enacting or enforcing any policy, rule, or administrative regulation that requires an employee or a contractor to disclose any information related to a pupil’s sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression to any other person without the pupil’s consent unless otherwise required by law, as provided. The bill would prohibit employees or contractors of those educational entities from being required to make such a disclosure unless otherwise required by law, as provided. The bill would prohibit employees or contractors of school districts, county offices of education, charter schools, or the state special schools, or members of the governing boards or bodies of those educational entities, from retaliating or taking adverse action against an employee on the basis that the employee supported a pupil in the exercise of specified rights, work activities, or providing certain instruction, as provided.”

“But whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble, it would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were thrown into the sea.”
Jesus Christ, Savior of the world and God in the flesh, in Mark 9:42
