Newsom vetoes bill that would require parents to affirm child’s gender identity in custody battles

FOX: California Gov. Gavin Newsom, a Democrat, vetoed a bill late Friday night that would have required judges in child custody cases to consider whether a parent has affirmed their child’s gender identity.

AB 957 originally proposed that courts deciding custody cases must consider whether each parent affirmed the child’s gender identity. An amendment in June added a parent’s affirmation of their child’s gender identity to the state’s standard of what constitutes parental responsibility in a court of law for providing for “the health, safety, and welfare of the child.”

The bill was passed earlier this month by the state assembly, and was sent to the governor’s desk for his signature. But Newsom said in a statement released Friday night that he cannot sign the legislation.  more here

  11. I think most everyone could see a year ago that Dementia Joe was never going to be running in 2024. My guess then, and now, is that Newsom would be inserted in the same manner as Biden was in 2020. Prove me wrong. I mean, we did fix all the problems with cheat-by-mail and those wonderfully unpredictable voting machines, right?
