Ep. 267: Newsom Eliminates Parental Rights

California Underground Podcast: Discussing California Politics Through a Lens of Sanity

Are you a Californian who feels isolated and alone in your political views in a deep blue state? Feel like you can’t talk about insane taxes, an overbearing government, and radical social experiments without getting a side eye? Then join us on the California Underground Podcast to hear from people just like you.

Original air date 7.23.24

On this episode, we discuss the controversial AB 1955 bill signed by Gavin Newsom, which prohibits schools from notifying parents if their child is gender confused or transitioning. They highlight the issue of local control being taken away by Sacramento and the potential harm to parent-child relationships. They also discuss the concerns of teachers being forced to keep secrets and the slippery slope of government involvement in children's lives. The hosts emphasize the importance of local representation and the need for parents to be informed about their children's well-being. In this conversation, Camille and Phil discuss the lack of transparency and accountability in California's handling of homelessness and education. They highlight the failure of the state to provide safe and adequate shelters for the homeless, with reports of violence, health hazards, and lack of oversight.
