If this is already law, where the hell were conservatives before it was passed?
This is California we’re talking about. The legislature is basically Marxist and ignores the public. Arnold is a RINO who supports the gay agenda on everything except outright same-sex “marriage” (where he at least respects the fact that the voters approved a ban on it a few years ago).
The deal is this. The large Latino vote in California votes Democrat to get race preferences and handouts. They don’t always agree with the ‘Rats on other issues (such as the gay agenda) but the race preference and handout issues trump everything else. So the ‘Rats in the legislature know they can safely ignore the voters on this and still get re-elected.
However, on a referendum, the conservative side has a shot at prevailing because it isolates the issue directly.
