SACRAMENTO – Gov. Newsom is celebrating the signing of two abortion rights bills this week, one that requires insurance companies to hide from parents certain medical services their children are receiving. The other prohibits the videotaping of clients and employees of abortion clinics, but fails to protect pro-life sidewalk counselors who videotape their work for their own protection.
AB 1184, sponsored by Planned Parenthood Affiliates of California, prohibits insurance companies from revealing to the policyholder the “sensitive” services of anyone on their policy, including minor children, even though the policy owner is financially responsible for the services.
These “sensitive” services include abortions, sexual assault treatment, drug abuse and mental health treatment, cross-sex hormones, puberty blockers, and sex-change operations. In California, minors can consent to all of these sensitive treatments after the age of 12 under certain conditions, and consent to abortions at any age.

“How can moms and dads protect their children if insurance companies deliberately keep them in the dark?” said California Family Council President Jonathan Keller. “Parents are responsible for the health and safety of their sons and daughters. Even the best-intentioned medical providers cannot replace the role of mothers and fathers. California should not force doctors to hide the truth about irreversible medical procedures like abortion and sterilizing hormone treatments.”
All nine Republican members of the California Senate agree. They recently sent a letter to Governor Gavin Newsom urging him to veto AB 1184.
“We should be encouraging parents and family to be involved in their children’s lives, not removing them further from it,” states the letter from Senator Rosilicie Ochoa Bogh (R-Rancho Cucamonga) and signed by the other eight Republican Senators.
“This bill, in an effort to further hide information from parents and caregivers, would put policyholders in the impossible position of being financially responsible for bills they did not incur and cannot verify as being legitimate. Additionally, it further limits parents’ abilities to protect their children by removing them from sensitive conversations as early as 12 years old. Parents have a right to be involved in sensitive medical decisions for their young children.”
Governor Newsom also signed AB 1356, which penalizes anyone who photographs or videotapes abortions clinic employees or patients to harass them, but fails to sufficiently protect prolife counselors or peaceful protestors who videotape their own work for their own protection.
“No health care provider or patient should face harassment, either online or in-person. But AB 1356 fails to consider peaceful pro-life advocates who sometimes use body-cam footage to protect themselves and their clients,” Keller explained.

End game?
If a 12 year old can consent to a sex change, a 12 year old can consent to sex.

BINGO this has been the perverts goal all along. The ruling class do seem to “love” the kiddies.
Some young girls are going to die because of this.
This should be challenged immediately in the courts. This is the most ridiculous thing this ass has done yet. The Republicans should be all over this.

God’s answer might be a 7.0 - 8.5 earthquake.
The devil’s work. I hope those parents sue.
This is unspeakably sick.
Sick.
The hour is late ...

But they can force people to disclose their vaccine status...
The United States needs a thorough cathartic elimination of these political devils, but who could we trust to do it? Trump? We could never go back to what we were; now a lost dream of the Enlightenment.
“Johnny ,what is this $100.00.00 Hospital bill for? Ankle sprain Dad.”
Doesn’t work. Hospital cannot work on an ankle sprain without parental permission.
Yeah more accurate I think too
I guess some of this boils down to the legal interpretation of “under certain conditions”. I once counseled an adult gay man who when hia mother died when he was 13, then was forced by the father to take his mothers place as sex “partner”. There are certainly cases where this happens to young girls and pregnancy results. Unfortunately, not all parents take tender care of their children, and I have known some real horror situations. One woman I knew had been sexually abused from the age of 2 (by father and mother) and by all 3 brothers and their friends from age 12. One man I knew was forced by his older brother to be raped by the family dog. The mother was an oblivious alcoholic. Sorry to be so graphic, but ignorance is NOT bliss, nor does it know all the good answers to serious problems.
I appreciate your reply, but the situation posed was kids hiding sex operations from their parents .... not abuse.
Ummm... who gets the bill?
Usually with private insurance, there are some odds and ends left over, such as copays or deductibles.
If the parents are going to be kept in the dark, does that mean the state picks up the tab? Or merely, that there is no advance notice to the parents, since they might notice that Johnny come Janie is missing something (breasts or privates) and heavily bandaged.
If genitals don’t determine sex, why bother changing them?

That is profound. The only answer I can think of is the true goal of transgenderism to render the next generation sterile.
Satan and his kin are having a raucous party in CA. Have fun while you can evil ones. Reckoning day is coming.
