Republican senator warns parents to ‘flee’ California over radical new transgender bill
Life Site News ^ | 06/15/2023 | Ashley Sadler

A Republican state senator on Tuesday issued a stark warning to California parents, urging them to “flee” the state if they love their children as a radical bill advances that could result in parents being considered “abusive” if they refuse to affirm their own child’s gender confusion.

California’s Senate Judiciary Committee voted 8-2 on Tuesday night (with one abstention) to pass Assembly Bill 957, which would characterize a “parent’s affirmation of the child’s gender identity as part of the health, safety, and welfare of the child.”

The measure would alter Section 3011 of the California Family Code to require judges to consider whether or not parents “affirm” a child’s “transgender” identity as one of the factors in the consideration of custody disagreements, LifeSiteNews previously reported.

The Washington Free Beacon noted that the vaguely worded new amendment has sparked worries that “non-affirmation” will be regarded in the Golden State “as abuse.”

“In the past, when we’ve had these discussions, and I’ve seen parental rights atrophy, I’ve encouraged people to keep fighting,” California state Sen. Scott Wilk said during the Tuesday night Senate Judiciary Committee hearing.

“I’ve changed my mind on that — if you love your children, you need to flee California,” he said. “You need to flee.”

Wilk said the bill’s language could be used by the state to remove children from their homes if their parents don’t “support the ideology of the government.”

“It just breaks my heart. I [was] born and raised in California, I love this state,” he said. “I’m not gonna stay in this state because it’s just too oppressive...”

Wisdom cries out in the streets. If Lot would have left Sodom, perhaps his Sons, Sons in Law, and his wife would have made it out…

Luke 21:36 “Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.”

I’m sending $10 out of my excrement-disturbing fund to the campaign of Cornell West. Bang for the buck. RFK Jr. just might get $20.

Most California birthing persons do what their screens tell them to do.

This is an opportunity for sane states to declare themselves sanctuary states for parents who really care about their children and who do not want their kids sacrificed to Moloch.

I’m guessing that, most Californians, especially in the cities and poor areas, and a great percentage of conservatives......

would leave the state if they were offered some sort of assistance or subsidy to help them get out. Perhaps help with a moving company or offers of jobs?

“Wilk said the bill’s language could be used by the state to remove children from their homes if their parents don’t “support the ideology of the government.”

Bill only applies to assigning custody during disputes among parents.

Feels like every week there’s a new article about California’s State Assembly passing this or that LGBT-related. What else do they even do?

They have a super majority and are totally depraved.

I believe people have a right to move. There is such thing as strategic retreat.

I also believe in staying and fighting.

For example, suppose this leader, for that is what he is, an elected leader, said this instead:

“I will never stop fighting for the citizens of California. This current Assembly has lost its mind. I call on all citizens to register and vote Republican. Anyone who can, run for school board, water board, city council. Donate to the good candidates. Volunteer. Stand on the street corners with signs - be a committeeman or delegate in your local party. EVERY DAY, do something to stop this madness. Never quit! Never surrender!!”

Has Kookifornicate’s Governor hair gel commented yet on this atrocity in the making? From the lunatic state assembly in SacraDemento.

Yes, be one of the divorcing parent could be encouraged to invent gender-dysphoria as reason why they should get custody over the other parent.

I like the weather in Florida, and living here is cheaper and better overall. Low taxes (in fact, no income tax) and no left-wing policies to worry about. It's a freer state. No communism like in California.

If they refuse to “affirm” their own child’s gender choice that the Stae has pushed into their children’s heads at “school” while keeping the process secret from the parents. So if a parent acts shocked when he finds out his child has been given anti puberty drugs for three months and calls for cessation then the parent is being abusive and the child is kidnapped by the state.
