California Assembly Bill AB 495 would allow any adult to take guardianship over any minor child with a simple form. The form would allow a non-related adult to go to a public school and seize control over a any minor child without any proof of a family relationship.
The purported justification for the measure is to allow the children of illegal aliens who have been deported to stay in the United States rather than leave with their parents. The bill was introduced by Celeste Rodriguez (D-San Fernando); she has Orwellianly entitled it, “The Family Safety Plan Act.” (An estimated 1 million children in California have at least one illegal immigrant parent, and approximately 133,000 children in California public schools are “undocumented.” 45% of children in the Golden State have at least one immigrant parent, legal or illegal, which conveys some idea of the lightning pace of mass transformative immigration to the U.S; we are being invaded at about the same pace that Germany invaded France in May, 1940.)
But nowhere does bill limit this method of asserting control over a child solely to the children of deported illegal immigrants. The law would apply to all children. Moreover, if a man brought this document to your child’s school and asked for your child to be placed in his custody. The school would have to meekly hand your child over to whoever showed up at the door with the form.
Erin Friday, an attorney and president of Our Duty-USA, a parent-led advocacy group, called AB 495 “a child trafficker’s and kidnapper’s dream bill. There is no background check, no welfare check, no court oversight, and no verification. All you need is a piece of paper and some form of identification, with no obligation for the adult handing the child over to verify the identification, and presto, someone walks away with your child,” Friday warned.
“California wants to let someone that is not related to your child remove her from school, enroll her in any other school in the state, authorize any medical treatment of her, including mental health services and drugs, without the parents’ notice and knowledge or consent,” said attorney Nicole Pearson. “This is not fear-mongering. I’m not being hyperbolic… . These unintended consequences are terrifying, and they are unavoidable.”
The ease with which child sex trafficking could occur under the bill brings to mind Britain’s Muslim rape gangs, which would often pick up girls from orphanages and foster homes, schools, and even police stations, and the people in charge of those establishments would meekly allow it to happen.
This bill is currently in Senate Appropriations. Should it pass out of committee, it will also likely pass the floor vote and go to the governor, at which point California’s parents will be at the mercy of Gavin Newsom. He can either veto the bill or else massively facilitate child sex trafficking.
