Update For SB 1146: Lara and LGBT Bullies on the Run!!

The news gets better and brighter for California MassResistance and other pro-family groups.

The liberal, and entrenched pro-establishment interests in Sacramento never thought it would happen.

The opposition to SB 1146 seemed disparate, disconnected, disorganized.

The pro-family groups proved them wrong.

Shame! Shame on Ricardo Lara!

State Senator Ricardo Lara (D-Bell Gardens) got arrogant.

Pro-life and pro-choice, pro-

He has gotten away with passing some of the worst legislation that the state has seen.

First, he is making war on citizenship, the rule of law, and basic distinctions between yours and mine,

He continues supporting legislation that will degrade citizenship while promoting illegal aliens and their wrong-doing.

He wants to hand out more of our money to illegal aliens.

He wants to give illegals more privileges than our needy Americans–homeless, mentally ill, foster kids, veterans.

Not only does he despise the rule of law, but he hates the laws of nature and Nature's God!

He lives a homosexual lifestyle.

He thinks that he was born that way.

He demands that every facet of society accept and facilitate this destructive perversion.

This is all wrong. All wrong.

He was molested as a youth. What happened to him is terrible, just terrible.. The answer, though, is not to embrace a false identity and destructive behavior.

The answer is the grace and truth which sets us all free!

Instead of taking stock of the truth in his life, he is attacking the rights and values of everyone else.

He has steadily pushed our culture, our politics to take on radical equality, even if the outcome is more inequality and abject tyranny.

So …

SB 1146 was going to force Christian colleges to abandon their Biblical, Judeo-Christian values.

Colleges would have endured endless lawsuits from LGBT activists demanding these institutions accommodate their marginal worldviews and lifestyles.

Churches, charities, small businesses, the entire Body of Christ arose and pushed back — hard.

Lara started feeling the heat, and his colleagues and all the other special interests starting seeing the light.

The pressure was too much for them.

Lara caved before the Appropriations hearing, and agreed to remove the move pernicious elements, which would permit lawsuits and narrow the Title IX exemptions.

SO, SB 1146 went to the floor, badly amended according to the LGBT lobby.

The bill was awaiting a vote August 15th–nothing,

The next vote would be on Thursday August 18th? Nope.

Come August 19th and the bill was amended again! This time, the process removed another section, which would have forced colleges to report to the state every time they expelled a student for violating the college moral code of conduct.

Guess what? It is a violation of federal privacy laws! Proof once again that Lara does not care about equal rights, but pushing an abusive, limited agenda which harms everyone else.

SB 1146 is a bad bill, and has been beating back so many times, one has to wonder why Lara even bothers.

The aggressive, abusive LGBT lobby must be furious with their would be "champion".

But there is more power with the people than with the people in power!

The public interest, the moral interest supersedes the special interests of Sacramento once again!

California MassResistance kept calling the state assemblymembers. Some of our team members visit State Senator Ben Allen's office.

Even though SB 1146 passed out of the state senate, it will have to go back through that chamber following the numerous gut and amendments done to the legislation.

We are urging No votes from all state senators, and demanded that Senator Allen pressure his assembly colleagues to vote NO!

Final Reflection


The pro-life, pro-family conservatives are learning a lesson which has been hard won, hard to accept.

You have to keep fighting.

The price of liberty is eternal vigilance.

But you and I can have a lot of fun defending our liberties, and expanding opportunity!

Most of all, we can really enjoy sticking it to the Left, and beat them at their own game!

Pro-life, pro-family, and pro-liberty is the new chic fight, and California MassResistance is winning!

The fight is not over, but the tide is definitely turning in our favor.
