Though Assembly Bill 1955 bans school districts in California from passing policies that require schools to tell parents if/when their child is struggling with gender identity issues, Mayor Gracey Van Der Mark has introduced an ordinance to make Huntington Beach a "Parents' Right to Know" city.
Elizabeth Troutman Mitchell, reporting fellow for The Daily Signal, says the city's legal department is working to determine how to best protect parental rights.
"There's pushback from parents, from conservative free speech groups who are saying that this is not right," she says of AB 1955. "I think that this is something we're going to see more in California, and hopefully more throughout the country."
Mitchell is not the only one who notices that Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris and her running mate, Governor Tim Walz, are radicals from very radical states, California and Minnesota.
"Both of those states have very radical anti-parental rights policies, and a lot of parents are saying that that could be a precursor of what would happen throughout the country if they were elected," the reporter notes.
Van Der Mark, who calls her state "one of the most dangerous states to raise a child," also wants the "Right to Know" ordinance to help parents sue California and overturn its "secrecy" law.
