Bill Originally Seeking to Prohibit Sex Offenders and Human Traffickers from Elected Office, Amended to Exempt Pedophiles

AB 2691 by Assemblywoman Dawn Addis (D-San Luis Obispo) prohibits persons convicted of “sexual assault” and “human trafficking” from running for any state or local elective office in California. It’s a good bill, with good intent… or was.

Recent amendments made on June 24, 2026 added in exemptions for pedophile adults who target children for sex

[artichokegrower]

Sen. Wiener’s requested amendments to Assemblywoman Addis’ bill, are the same as his SB 145 – exempting sodomy on a minor, oral copulation on a minor, and sexual penetration of a minor.

These sexual crimes against minor children would not prevent someone from running for state or local elective office in California.

California State Senator soon to be congressman Scott Weiner is just protecting his constituency

Sick.

Expect elective office critters to be arrested for you guessed it ,unless elective office protects them , LOL

[Red Badger]

Now, why would a Democrat add that provision?........

I can think of several reasons....all of them evil.

[brownsfan]

CA never ceases to amaze me, and that’s not a good thing.

It really raises questions about what Scott likes to do with his Weiner.

We all know who this is intended to protect. They want to allow the groomers to have sex with teenage boys because apparently homosexual sex is ok it’s a minor.

[Antoninus]

I’d say, “ask yourself why they did that”...but I think the answer is obvious.

[adorno]

To Weiner and many democrats, pedophilia is just sex with younger people. Therefore, not illegal, just like same-gender sex is not illegal either. Eventually, sex with animals will end up legal too, if democrats have their way.

Remember the Weiner Holder ticket.

“ Sen. Wiener’s requested amendments to Assemblywoman Addis’ bill, are the same as his SB 145 – exempting sodomy on a minor, oral copulation on a minor, and sexual penetration of a minor.”

How is it that the senator was not dragged out and flogged for suggesting this???

Oh, it’s California.

It's a race between Jesus and the comet.

[ArcadeQuarters]

I’m shocked that the elites didn’t include pedophile protection from the start.

I read (here) that they prefer to be called Minor-attracted persons

I thought He liked dinosaurs.

I didn’t even have to read the article to who was behind it.

Is NAMBLA still in existence, and is Wiener a member?

It’s a mystery all right... /s
