Sacramento, Calif. — The California State Senate approved a bill on Friday to lower the reporting requirements for some cases of statutory rape, authored by a Democratic Assemblywoman who was reprimanded for accusations of sexual harassment.
All ten Republicans voted no on AB 1145, which was sponsored by the LGBTQ advocacy group Equality California. It would change the reporting requirements for mandated reporters if the perpetrator is younger than 21, the minor victim is 16 or older, and the sexual activity is consensual.
Should it become law, high school teachers or counselors who know one of their 16-year-old students or counselees is having sex with a 20-year-old would no longer be required to report it to authorities.
The bill is especially concerning in light of how many LGBT organizations are sponsoring social events between young teenagers and young adults. See these fliers for examples of the wide disparity in ages promoted at such events.
In 2018, the bill’s author, Cristina Garcia (D – Downey), made headlines after being investigated for accusations of sexual harassment against male Capitol staffers.
“Despite the decision that the most egregious allegations could not be substantiated, it is clear that Assemblymember Garcia has engaged in a pattern of behavior that must be addressed,” Assembly Speaker Anthony Rendon said at the time.
After a temporary absence from the Assembly, Garcia, an outspoken leader of the #MeToo movement, was required to attend sexual harassment and sensitivity training.
Epstein wing of the party. I’m starting to think wealthy elites who run the world are all just pedophiles. Gay or straight the just like having sex with very he very underage.
Of course they do. We can’t protect our kids from these predators any more. The govt is made up of perverts.
And they (the queers) said they just wanted to be “recognized”
Honestly I’m surprised they didn’t make it 27 since democrats seem to think that’s when adulthood begins according to their healthcare mandate.
Just another way to keep more black kids out of trouble, right?
Hubba hubba.
Right? With age groups mingling 4 years to 16 years old and 11 years to 25 years old , why not just push it to 27 years? /s
I see many shows on TV where the “perp” is some dumb 19 year old kid who gets a 16 or 17 year old girl pregnant, and is charged with statutory rape, placed on a predator list for life, etc. I guess what I’m saying is I’d be more inclined to support a law that allows those who are 16+ to be involved as long as there is less than three years difference in age. It seems pretty harsh to hang such charges on kids, who, might end up married, with him living in the home, and working a full time job. I say this, because my wife was 17 (4 months from being 18) and I was 19, when she got pregnant, and I was threatened by a prosecutor with statutory rape, decades ago. I simply waited til she turned 18, by which time I had a good job, and had saved enough to buy a house. I went to night college, while working, and continued climbing the ladder.
We got married, had several children, all of whom I’m proud are contributing members to society, and are raising great children on their own.
