**Outrage: California's New Law Threatens Parental Rights and Child Safety**
In a shocking move that has ignited national outrage, California Governor Gavin Newsom has signed Assembly Bill 495 into law, a piece of legislation that many critics argue could lead to an alarming increase in child endangerment, effectively undermining parental rights across the state.
This controversial bill grants adults claiming distant kinship “within the fifth degree” the authority to make medical and educational decisions for minors without any need for parental consent or verification.
In practical terms, this means that a stranger could claim to be a relative and, with a simple form, take custody of a child from school without any safeguards in place to verify their identity or motive.
The potential consequences of this law are dire.
Critics include concerned parents, child advocates, and religious leaders who fear that this legislation creates a path for child trafficking and abuse.
The California Family Council has raised alarms about the lack of notarization or background checks associated with the Caregiver’s Authorization Affidavit included in AB 495, warning that it could open floodgates for child predators.
Kristen Waggoner from Alliance Defending Freedom described the bill as facilitating a "human-trafficker’s dream," citing its far-reaching implications for the safety of children in the state.
The legislation is couched as a means to support immigrant families, but many are questioning whether child safety is being sacrificed on the altar of progressive ideology.
Pastor Jack Hibbs has vehemently condemned the law, calling it “demonic” and urging families to consider homeschooling or private education as a means of protecting their children from an increasingly hostile educational system.
As if the implications of AB 495 weren’t alarming enough, schools have already started purging emergency contact records, effectively erasing documented parental authority.
Governor Newsom claims that these changes will make children safer, yet rational voices across the country raise serious doubts about this assertion.
The bill is set to take effect on January 1, 2026, leaving parents with a stark warning: act now.
Activists encourage parents to contact Newsom’s office to demand a repeal of what many see as an egregious violation of parental rights. Support for organizations such as the California Family Council and legal defense groups is also encouraged, as they work to challenge this dangerous law.
As the threat of AB 495 looms, the call to action has never been clearer.
Parents must rally, petition, and vote for representatives who prioritize child safety and uphold traditional family values.
California's children deserve protection, not exploitation, and the time for citizens to protect their rights is now.
