Thousands Co-Sign The Declaration Of Opposition

 

One vote away from defeating SB 866

If passed, SB866 will reduce the age of consent for all vaccines to 15. While originally drafted to allow children as young as 12 to consent to any vaccine without their parent’s/guardian’s consent or knowledge, SB866’s author, Senator Scott Wiener (D, San Francisco) amended the bill to increase the age to 15 in response to massive bi-partisan and public outcry to the blatant, dangerous trampling of California parents’ and guardians’ ability to protect and care for their children, especially in the context of liability-free products that federal law requires parents/guardians give fully-informed, freely-given consent.

Frustration from California residents, constituents, and parents has reached a boiling point as Sacramento Legislators continue to attempt to pass extreme laws that remove parental rights and endanger children. In a unique turn of events, the final bills left - particularly Senate Bill 866 - has seen massive bi-partisan opposition across every profession. Public statements made by both Democrats and Republicans acknowledge the Bill is a slippery slope and goes too far. One vote could decide it all.
