OREGON, January 24, 2019 (LifeSiteNews) News from Oregon that Governor Kate Brown is on board with a bill which would require invasive home visits by state employees to all households with newborns has sent shockwaves across the nation.
While the proposed legislation, known as Senate Bill 526, remains in a nascent form with very few published details, it has nonetheless generated great excitement among progressive statists while sending chills down the spines of parents and families who fear increased government interference in their private lives.
The controversial bill directs the Oregon Health Authority to study home visiting by licensed health care providers. It has also been given emergency status, meaning that action must be taken before the end of this year.
The emergency designation has an oddly ominous tone, stating that the measure is necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health and safety, so an emergency is declared to exist.
Whats the big emergency? asked Paula Bolyard in an opinion piece penned for PJ Media.
Apparently, the state of Oregon is concerned that some parents are raising their children without the watchful eye of Big Brother monitoring their every move a big no-no in the view of the progressive left, continued Bolyard.

Man, you are not kidding.
I will bet the ‘visitors’ will bug the house or offer a free Alexa or something to monitor the family 24/7.
The minute the parents do or say the ‘wrong’ thing (such as “you were born a boy, and you’ll stay a boy”), in comes the SWAT team to rescue the children.
Just watch.
move or at least have your baby out of state without record in Oregone
You can say that again, my FRiend...Certified!
From article: "They now want access to them from the day they are born and they will succeed if parents don't rise up and tell the government nannies to back off."
I could say that in a much more colorful and authoritative manor with the "Fourth Amendment" thrown in for good measure.
I have no doubt that a lot of people will move.
Throw the Alexa away. It seems convenient, but it even records the fights between a husband and wife. Think about it.
Exactly...taking the babie’s blood without a warrant? Wake up Oregonians...
