The Final Month
A court has struck down San Francisco’s law allowing non-citizens to vote. Voting, the judge explained, is a right reserved for U.S. citizens. It’s amazing this needed to be said.
Hopefully this glimmer of sanity to begin August is an auspicious sign, as much will be decided this month. The Legislature adjourns for the year on August 30 and has 1,250 bills to deal with. It will be my final month at the State Capitol.
Two terrible bills have already passed to start the month: one would open legal injection centers in our cities; the other seeks to deny parents access to school board meetings. Both are now on Newsom’s desk.
While we’ve killed the very worst of the radical COVID bills, several are awaiting final votes:
- SB866: would eliminate parental consent for 15-year-olds to get the vaccine.
- SB1479 would turn schools into state-run COVID testing agencies
- AB1797: would reduce privacy for the California Immunization Record Database
- AB2098 would punish doctors for sharing COVID “misinformation.”
- SB 1018: would further censorship of health information on social media
Meanwhile, the spread of California’s insanity to Washington continues. The so-called “Inflation Reduction Act” will actually increase inflation and Congress is trying to raise taxes during a recession – as Biden comically denies it’s a recession at all.
Finally, on Saturday I will be speaking at CPAC. The topic of my speech: California is not a model for the nation. It is a warning to the nation.
Help me get to Washington to sound that warning
