AB 14 -- DISCRIMINATION /CIVIL RIGHTS This bill would expand civil rights
protection because of "sexual orientation." We do not have laws to protect
other groups. Why should be have laws for homosexuals? We know there is a great
agenda by liberals to expand all laws concerning the homosexual community.
Please write your Assembly and Senate members and asks them to oppose this
bill.
SB 11 -- DOMESTIC PARTNERSHIPS has been placed in the "suspense file."
SB 755 -- Anti-spanking has been placed in the "suspense file."
SUSPENSE FILE
Bills are placed into “suspense” to research to anticipate what it will cost
the tax payer if the bill becomes law. Once placed into “suspense,” a bill
can be pulled back into the committee and voted on at any time without further
testimony.
THE GOVERNOR PROMISES A VETO!
Governor Schwarzenegger told a YMCA group yesterday that he will not sign SB
43 if it passes both houses of the legislature and comes to his desk. He
said, "the people of California have spoken on that issue." (MEANING PROP 22) This
is a great victory for evangelicals. Thank you for writing the governor and
asking for a veto. Apparently this bill is now dead on arrival!
HOWEVER - SB 11
Senator Carol Migden, self avowed lesbian, has introduced SB 11. This bill
would give those living together unmarried all the benefits of a married
couple without any need for a ceremony, as we understand it. Nonsense! Please
remember that the governor has signed every domestic partnership bill that has
come to him. Please enter into the same effort you gave SB 43 by writing the
governor today. SB 11 would weaken marriage in California and would further
complicate the parental issue for innocent children.
CLERK PROMOTES HOMOSEXUAL MARRIAGE
Imagine my surprise when I opened my paper last Friday and read that the Yolo
County clerk-Recorder said she is going to give out a Gay marriage
"certificate of inequality" to homosexual couples so she could 'ease her soul' over
having to deny marriage licenses to gays and lesbians.
She will do this on Valentine's Day. This is in essence a PROTEST of the
California law that narrows the gift of marriage and limits the same to a man and
a woman.
These certificates will be given out Valentine's Day in connection with an
annual event, "Freedom to Marry Day," in which same-sex couples appear at
county clerks' offices nationwide seeking to marry.
AB 43 is homosexual Assemblyman Leno's bill to eliminate our present laws
regarding marriage. We urge you to write your legislators and the governor to
ask for no same-sex laws. It is imperative! This cause is, in my estimation,
the most important social legislation at the State Capitol this session. |
