State Senator Ricardo Lara (D-Bell, Long
Beach) is the epitome of a machine politician.

(California is over-run with them!)
He does the bidding of special interests,
with no regard for the public interest. Even the uber-liberal LA Weekly could not avoid
exposing Lara’s corrupting connections.

Senator Lara even despises public
opinion, particularly dissent. He forced out a group of protesters from
an open forum in South Gate, California last year.

What an irony, that his career in politics
began with upending the incredible corruption in Bell, California, where
working class Latinos were gouged by the thousands to pay six-figure salaries
to the city council, the city clerk, and the face of the scandal, city manager
Robert Rizzo.

the city is barely regaining its financial footing,

He is the face and force for hyper-amnesty,

Another irony: for a politician who

contrary, but confront to diminish the pro-life, pro-family values of many of
his constituents.

His latest legislative travesty is California
Senate Bill 1146.
Senate Bill 1146.
This legislation, from origin to current
amendments, has been geared toward marginalizing Christian colleges. Currently,
Bible-based institutions of learning apply for a waiver from Title IX of the
Civil Rights Act, in regards to discrimination based on sex.

Why does this matter? And why should this
waive remain intact? Because the Obama Administration and the destructive
anti-family agenda of the left is dead-set on redefining terms, and expanding
“sex” to include homosexual conduct and transgenderism.

Lara’s intent is clear: shame Christian
colleges in California, expose them to lawsuits, force them to install
transgender bathrooms, and remove the greater mission of these colleges: the
preaching of the Gospel and the establishment of Biblical values in our
society.

His bill has already passed out of the state
senate, and is now headed for the California State Assembly’s judiciary
committee. Already tuned into the statewide revolt against this revolting
intrusion against our First Amendment rights, Lara and the committee postponed
their hearing on the bill from June 28th to June 30th. California conservatives
have seen this legislative two-step before. A floor vote in the morning, a
committee hearing in the afternoon, a month-long recess follows, and by then
the most concentrated and focused pro-family activists have subsided their
efforts …

And the bill passes to Governor Brown, where
he signs it and catches everyone off guard. Something like this happened with
the California assisted-suicide bill last year.

Pastors and parishioners throughout the
Southern California region have been informed and are ready to demand this bill
be pulled. Not only that, but we are going on the offense, demanding full
protections for the First Amendment and an end to this intolerant homosexual
agenda.

If you cannot join us in the protest, we urge
you to contact the members of the State Assembly, and tell
them to vote it down and kill this bill!

Let’s be blunt.
The LGBT movement is not about individual
liberty, but collective tyranny.

It’s not about “Love is Love”, but rather

State Senator Ricardo Lara has become too big
for his britches, convinced that life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness do not
apply those who disagree with the Regressive Left’s Agenda.
