California Democrats recently voted to approve legislation that will make California a sanctuary state for transgender youth and their parents avoiding prosecution for child abuse in other states.
The legislation, Senate Bill 107, was approved on a 30–9 vote along party lines in the California state Senate on Aug. 31, the last day of the legislative session. State Sen. Bob Hertzberg, a Democrat, didn’t vote on the measure. Gov. Gavin Newsom has until Sept. 30 to either veto the “gender-affirming health care” legislation or sign it into law.
