Today I hammer on AB 495 ... yet ANOTHER gem of a bill working it's way through the California Legislature. Care for a free child today, sir?? They're free, and your for the taking. Hispanic? White? Asian? Girl? Boy? Step right up and get your free child, no ID verification or background checks required! Ew, gross, Kristin, you say. But seriously; AB 495, under the guise of, "ICE raids and deportations!!" allows for ANYONE to claim a child from school or daycare with a one-pager affidavit and zero verification. This is why anyone with half a brain is taking their children far away from California. It's amazing how these bills sail though the Assembly and Senate with our zombie "lawmakers" just marching in lockstep to violate your parental rights much less common decency.

Speaker 1 (00:10):
The California Mama Bears have been forced out of hibernation.
Fierce guardians of our future, Mama Bear's fight for parents' rights,
defense of the family, and God given freedoms everywhere. You're
listening to Mama Bears Radio with your host, The New Normal,

(00:32):
Kristin Hurley.

Speaker 2 (00:37):
All right, everybody, Welcome to Mama Bears Radio. Kristin Hurley here,
the New Normal. I realized I kind of stopped saying
that about myself. It's still true, although the new normal
has really stretched out, so it's less probably shocking. I've
been bodied it a little bit.

Speaker 3 (00:55):
More, haven't we. All? All Right?

Speaker 2 (00:57):
Well, welcome to the show today, Safe and effective rate
vido Mama Bear's Radio. You're always gonna get it straight
from me, straight from the Mama Bear's mouth. I suppose
we are just loaded for Bear today as usual. Very
excited to be here among among everything else. I've just

(01:19):
it's hit me that it's back to school time. And
you know, time travels differently when you're over a certain age,
the big five oh number.

Speaker 3 (01:30):
But it's so funny.

Speaker 2 (01:31):
It's like a blink of the I was with my
sister or my nephew yesterday and he starts school on Wednesday.
This is like public school, back to school August sixth.
It's so they may as well just not do summer anymore.
If I was a kid in these conditions, you're out

(01:52):
like mid June or you know, second week of June
or whatever, and then back at the crack of August.
But the actual, heck kind of treatment is that if
these kids better start revolting.

Speaker 3 (02:05):
This is ridiculous.

Speaker 2 (02:06):
Anyways, So we went from hey, it's summertime. Oh, look
at the beautiful summer weather, go to the beach, travel
to back in the saddle again for all the poor
little kidlets out there. So I suppose I better start
talking about school stuff again.

Speaker 3 (02:21):
I might.

Speaker 2 (02:22):
I don't think I got too far afield over the
summer months here, but we all.

Speaker 3 (02:26):
Have to face facts.

Speaker 2 (02:28):
We rejoiced in, like less morning school traffic out there.
Of course, it's tour season, so there's tons of cars,
but now it's like the morning school commute. It's gonna
treat us all. Anyways, there's that little ditty. And my
other thing I was gonna say is speaking of which, Actually,

(02:49):
so I'm here today, here, today, gone tomorrow, actually here
to this week I'll be out again next week, speaking
of school, taking one third of my children back to
her outward bound location. She has escaped California, God bless her.
But anyways, so we're taking her back to her world

(03:10):
for another year of school, the last little year quote college,
which isn't really.

Speaker 3 (03:17):
College for her.

Speaker 2 (03:18):
It's not really college because she's in kind of a
specific program, but it's at a college, so anyways, we
get to say that. Anyways, So I'm here today, gone
next week, and then back for probably the foreseeable future.
You're stuck with me anyways, so we're gonna have a
good time today. I as usual, have a ton of
stuff to get through, very exciting, and I also wanted

(03:41):
to take a minute seeing as how i'm kind of
I'm kind of it around here.

Speaker 3 (03:47):
Where is everyone today?

Speaker 2 (03:49):
Ian and his crew When they're in the house for
Beachside Tech Talks, it's always just like a bustling crowd,
and I feel like, yay Radio. Sometimes it's just me.
I think it's just me here right now. So anyways,
seeing as how I'm the one run in the show
here at AM thirteen forty k Omy Schoolhouse Radio, I
thought a fun little update on our scheduling changes that

(04:11):
we're seeing this week. I'm very excited about said Beachside
Tech talk show has moved to two hours. So we're
doing a little bit of a re swizzling that you
will see over this week and then actually kind of
flashing out over the next couple of weeks. A let's
see here, a broadcasting of our American Stories will go

(04:33):
to earlier morning. We'll have that show from eight to ten.
Kind of wake up with that kind of inspirational stuff. Honestly,
I think it's gonna be kind of cool. You wake
up and stories about great Americans and great companies and
great people doing good stuff should be inspiring to.

Speaker 3 (04:51):
Each and every one of us.

Speaker 2 (04:52):
And then we will have Dave Ramsey then and again,
this is AM thirteen forty k omy what you're currently
tuned to if you're here me Schoolhouse Radio as we
move into the fall, because it is fall, and we
have some pilot programs coming for our actual schoolhouse Radio shows,
which will be student programs designed by the students for

(05:15):
themselves for you. We will be peppering those in more
and more. We have a number of classrooms kind of
coming soon as our pilot classrooms this fall, so those
will be in the morning hours peppered in with Dave Ramsey,
and then at high noon is beachside Tech Talk for
two hours Ian and his crew. It's super fun to

(05:36):
let them expand and get a little bit deeper into
the content that they're talking about and hopefully we're all a.

Speaker 3 (05:43):
Little bit smarter for it.

Speaker 2 (05:46):
Then, of course, Monday through Friday, we have our variety
of shows from two to four live and local programming,
including It's Monday, Mama Bear mondays.

Speaker 3 (05:56):
I'm still a little like I'm used to Wednesdays.

Speaker 2 (05:59):
Still for Mama Bears, So Monday always catches me a
little bit by surprise.

Speaker 3 (06:03):
But here we are.

Speaker 2 (06:03):
And then we are going to be adding some more
shows as we go. So in a couple of weeks
we're going to have midweek another show on Wednesday at
six after school's out drivetime.

Speaker 3 (06:14):
This is to me, Isaiah Guzman.

Speaker 2 (06:16):
Is starting a show, youth Athletics in the County. We
have a working title and I'm not going to share
it yet. So he's going to be looking at kids
and sports, super fun, super relevant for everybody around here.
Everybody's kids are always involved in athletics, so that's going
to be awesome. More shows to be determined coming soon,

(06:40):
and we're just on a roll here, so I'm super
excited about growing, growing up, changing, adding in more young
voices on the air, which is of course, the whole
point to schoolhouse Radio is the adults in the room
have to stop yapping and we need to let the
kids express themselves and get to enjoy this, as I say,
venerable medium broadcast radio in a way that they just

(07:04):
they have their channels for self expression and technology. But
you know what, kids, sometimes the old school is the
best school. And so broadcast live broadcast radio is super
fun and we really want to spread the wealth around.
So that's why we're here and you will be seeing
more of that. There we go, My microphone just cut out.

(07:36):
Good times around.

Speaker 3 (07:36):
Here, all right, everybody, So back to.

Speaker 2 (07:39):
The matter at hand. This is Mama Air's Radio. Kristin
Hurley and I have a few let's see what is
on the juicy subjects for us today. Something I need
to cover immediately, if not sooner. Eighty four ninety five.
I was going to talk about this last week. This
involves everyone, kids and parents and otherwise Californians alike. This

(08:03):
is another gem cooking in the California legislature. I believe
it's currently in the Senate about to be voted on.
I want to really dial into this. This one's a whopper,
and this one again is one of these I can't
even call it an eighty twenty issue. It's a ninety
nine point nine nine percent of normal thinking people issue.

Speaker 3 (08:30):
This is just.

Speaker 2 (08:32):
Absolutely abhorrent what the California legislature is thinking that they're
going to do with your children and mine. So we're
going to get into that. I want to talk about
I want to bring up a website.

Speaker 3 (08:45):
You know, if you really are want to get more involved.

Speaker 2 (08:48):
There's obviously plenty of places to go and read about
the what's going on in the California legislature. There's a
million websites or whatever. But I want to talk about
real impact us again, if you want to keep tabs
on through the lens of parents and families, parental rights,

(09:10):
all that kind of a thing, you know, maintaining autonomy
over yourself and your household and your kids, keeping that,
you know, keeping the state focused on what the state
should be focused on, and out of everyone's backyards, basements
and back pockets. That's really cool resource website. I want

(09:30):
to talk a little bit about the other whoppers that
the whoppers cooking. You know, again, if we're saying, okay, well,
you know, these are issues and topics that you know
as a mom, as a parent focused on raising up
our next generation, doing the best we can for them

(09:51):
means facing facts about what's going on in the outside world.
You know, you can't just bubble yourself into your own
household and and think that everything's going to be fine.
It's kind of an integrative parenting approach.

Speaker 3 (10:05):
You've got to raise that, you got to raise your kids.

Speaker 2 (10:07):
That's bad enough, that's hard enough to know what to
do with your kids. But at the same time, we absolutely.

Speaker 3 (10:13):
Have to have our claws out, as.

Speaker 2 (10:15):
I say, and in defense of what other nefarious energies
in the world are are up to. And you absolutely
have to keep aware of what the world is the
world's up to, because it may, if it doesn't affect
you immediately in your immediate situation, may.

Speaker 3 (10:38):
Very well affect society as.

Speaker 2 (10:39):
A greater whole, our next generation as a greater whole.
And it behooves us to really concern ourselves with all
the stuff going on, So I wanted to talk about
can I read through all of my options achievement gap.
There's some data out about education as usually also, so

(11:01):
I came across a really cool resource. I've hit on
this topic of number of times before. Pornography is absolutely everywhere.
It's so tangibly close for even young kids that you
wouldn't even think. We've talked about this subject a number
of times through a couple of different lenses, a couple
of different guests. I've had a couple of different articles

(11:24):
I've read from. But there's a really cool, cool website
and resource called Protect Young Eyes. I want to read
a little bit about them and go through their website
with you, guys. So let me, without further ado hit
my first break here. When we come back, let's tackle
Aby four ninety five, just because we need to. You

(11:45):
guys have to have this on your radar. If you know,
if you are compelled into action, then I really want
you guys to write in or call in and not
let the Senate and dear Old Gavin newsom our friend
take your kids away from you and not being hyperbolic
about that. Okay, guys, Mama Bear's radio here safe and
Effective Radio. Kristin Hurley at the helm. I will be

(12:09):
right back.

Speaker 4 (12:13):
Mama Bear's Radio.

Speaker 5 (12:15):
We'll be right back.

Speaker 3 (12:52):
Welcome back to Mama Bear's Radio.

Speaker 2 (12:54):
Kristin Hurley here, and we are gonna take a little
detour into the world of Sacramento.

Speaker 3 (13:03):
So eighty four ninety five. It is.

Speaker 2 (13:07):
It has been for months now legislative season in Sacramento, right.
And I was shocked when I started paying attention to
all this stuff. And I remember talking about this sort
of my first year on air, my first learning curve
for participating in all of this stuff. There are thousands

(13:30):
of bills proposed in California each year to well over
two thousand, and a goodly goodly number of them get
signed into law. That's a ton of people just deciding
they get to be in their bonnet, and they're like, yes,
I'm gonna write this up pretty soon.

Speaker 3 (13:51):
Before you know it, it affects you and your.

Speaker 2 (13:53):
Family, I would say, pretty dang well, always under the radar.
And then years later you're wait, like, wait a minute,
that's a law. When that happened, no one's paying attention.
But I really beseech everyone, Aby four ninety five. This
is dubbed the Family Preparedness Plan Act of twenty twenty five.

(14:18):
There's always just such an innocent little title attached to
these suckers. Assembly Woman celest Rodriguez out of San Fernando.
The bill claims to provide compassionate solutions for immigrant families
facing sudden separations due to detention or deportation. But this

(14:40):
bill dangerously redefines guardianship, strips away from rights, and creates
legal loopholes that make kid napping children easy. You think
I'm making this up.

Speaker 3 (14:53):
You think I'm hyperbolic. This it sounds bad, But everybody
stay with me.

Speaker 2 (14:59):
So the the author's intend to quote no child face uncertainty.
And I want to pause right here, Actually let me pause.
I've been at the last several Parow Valley Unified School
District board meetings. I've talked about it on air, and
in fact, if given the chance today with my war
with the clock, if I get to it, I want

(15:20):
to talk about last week's meeting. But what has been
one overarching theme and topic at the board meetings? Now,
this is Paow Valley. It includes all the Watsonville schools
and all the Appas schools.

Speaker 3 (15:34):
Is they are taught.

Speaker 2 (15:35):
They are like, it's ice raids and deportations, ice raids
and deportations, and everyone down from the superintendent on down
at these meetings is bound and determined to be as
fearful and prepared as possible. And they I don't know

(15:55):
what they're thinking, but they're like, the ice raids are
going to come through the schools and rip kids out
of classrooms, and they've done a bunch of teacher training
and have all this teacher preparedness whatever protocols for if
ICE does come to a school to you know, I
just think we have to be absolutely reasonable about this stuff. Yes,

(16:20):
there are deportations happening, and there are ICE agents arresting
people and detaining them, and as we if you're thinking
clearly and following the actual narrative about this stuff, which
is essential, otherwise we're all going to go ape as
crazy again with the fear mongoring that I'm hearing. There

(16:41):
are no ice raids in schools. ICE is not going
to be pulling kids out of the classroom and yanking
them away forever.

Speaker 3 (16:49):
More just kicking them, you know.

Speaker 2 (16:51):
Putting them in a truck and trailer and taking them
back to wherever it's not happening. And in the foreseeable future,
the at least the administration and the entire Homeland Security
or whoever's with the ICE and the border patrol, they
are getting the known criminals. That's the first priority. People
that have been in trouble a you're in trouble with

(17:13):
the law, that you're here illegally, illegally, But the people
that have actually seriously caused harm to other people, that
is the priority and focus, targeted approach to this. And
they've been clear about this, and if you care to
follow and be reasonable about what this situation of millions

(17:35):
and millions of extra people in the country that have
come across.

Speaker 3 (17:38):
And I might add as a further rabbit hole.

Speaker 2 (17:43):
Telling someone in the first place, well, the gates are
wide open, come on in, we'll take this country.

Speaker 3 (17:49):
I will take care of you.

Speaker 2 (17:51):
Oh, and it won't be a problem, you won't have
future trouble with the law. You're you're gonna be here
and you're gonna get all this free stuff. That's the
cruel The cruelty is not sending people back to their
country of where they belong, country of origin or whatever,
where they're a citizen. That's not the cruel part. The

(18:11):
cruel part is luring people by the millions into this
country with false promises.

Speaker 3 (18:20):
At any rate. So the Papro district, there's lots.

Speaker 2 (18:24):
Of talk about oh, the ice rays and the ice rays,
which is not happening. However, so this the language of
the author of this bill AB four ninety five, to me,
is a chance to capitalize on this sort of fearful
fear of like ice raids and like, oh no, they're

(18:45):
gonna deport all these innocent kids.

Speaker 3 (18:48):
This is where this is the excuse.

Speaker 2 (18:50):
They're hiding behind with this bill. It's not gonna help that. Okay,
let's think clearly here, Rodriguez, this is assembly Woman Rodriguez
who authored this bill and her supporters. Are you that
ABY four ninety five ensures children are not left vulnerable
if a parent is detained unexpectedly by federal immigration officials.

(19:12):
Her bill attempts to create streamlined guardianship by allowing a
quote non relative extended family member to find broadly as
anyone with a quote mentoring relationship that's in the bill,
anyone with a mentoring relationship to assume control over a

(19:34):
child through a one page affidavit. No court review, no notorization,
no parental consent required. Kristen, are you lying to us all? No?
What I'm reading from right now is out at California
Family Council if you look. If you look up ABY
four ninety five, the details about this bill are everywhere.

(19:57):
I also have a bunch of info from it as
the aforementioned Realimpact dot us, which is a site that
monitors the Californy legislature and the bills coming through many
You can go and read the bill yourself. Let's do
that on the cow Ledge site. Okay, So let's see here.

(20:19):
This bill opens the door for relative or even a
quote non relative extended family member to.

Speaker 3 (20:27):
Take custody of a child by.

Speaker 2 (20:30):
Merely handing over assigned quote affidavit to a school or
childcare staff. Like I said, no court order, no background check,
no verification of parental consent. According to the bill, quote
a parent signature or a sealer signature from a court
is not required, and quote a person who relies on

(20:51):
the affidavit has no obligation to make any further inquiry
or investigation. So the bill side steps ID verification allows
individuals to present a California driver's license consular idea or
even a medical or social security number is proof of identity,
and this leaves the door wide open for abuse more alarmingly,

(21:17):
most alarmingly, either one if the parent isn't aware or
doesn't actively object, this so called quote caregiver, even a
non relative, would have the power to make critical medical.

Speaker 3 (21:27):
Decisions for the child.

Speaker 2 (21:29):
This includes authorizing immunizations and physical exams.

Speaker 3 (21:33):
The bill says, quote a.

Speaker 2 (21:34):
Caregiver who is a relative or a non relative extended
family member shall have the same rights to authorize medical
and dental care for the miner that are given to
the guardians. Okay, so let's talk a little bit more turkey.
Aaron Friday, someone that I have followed for quite a while.

(21:55):
She calls this ABY four ninety five child traffickers and kidnappers,
dream big, she says, and I'm going to keep repeating this.

Speaker 3 (22:03):
I want you guys to hear this.

Speaker 2 (22:04):
There's no background check, no welfare check, no court oversight,
and no verification. All you need is a piece of
paper in some form of identification, with no obligation for
the adult handing the child over to verify the identification. Impresto,
someone walks away with your child. Friday also rejects Rodriguez's

(22:24):
claim that this bill is narrowly tailored to immigration emergencies.

Speaker 3 (22:29):
Right, they're hiding behind that.

Speaker 2 (22:31):
The bill's language applies to any child for any reason,
regardless of immigration status, and grants temporary legal rights to
individuals with no blood relation, including people who may not
even be known to the child's parents. The stranger can
consult to medical treatments for the child, and the bill
absolves the doctors from any liability should the consent adult

(22:53):
consenting not have any actual legal connection.

Speaker 3 (22:55):
To the child.

Speaker 2 (22:56):
We are talking about a legal pathway, says erin Friday,
for editors to operate in plain sight, This bill is
not about immigration. It's about relinquishing parental rights to unvetted
strangers under the guise of compassion.

Speaker 3 (23:11):
So let me.

Speaker 2 (23:15):
Let me read a little bit further here. Nicole Pearson,
she's an attorney from FACS Law Truth Justice. She gave
testimony before the Senate Human Services Committee about this bill.
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,

(23:38):
including mental health services, and drugs without the parents' notice
and knowledge or consent. She says that this is not
fear mommigering. I'm not being hyperbolic. These unintended consequences are
terrifying and they're unavoidable. Pearson, who has represented immigration families
and trafficking survivors, noted that the bill's vague definitions lack

(24:00):
of procedural safeguards, surprise are early similar to federal mishandlings
that led to over six hundred thousand unaccounted for unaccompanied
minors in twenty twenty one doute. She says the bill
co opts the term non relative extended family member from

(24:25):
dependency or foster care court. But since it's quote caretakers
Authorization Affidavit, that's what the one pager that these people
would sign. The caretaker authorization affidavit will not be used
in connection with any official legal proceedings. It completely sidesteps
the systems safeguards such as background checks, fingerprinting, home visits,

(24:45):
welfare checks, interviews, hearings, and liability if the child is harmed.
She says, this is not a compassionate bill designed to
help the children of undocumented immigrants. It's a license to
take vulnerable children and make them disappear. Okay, I'm gonna
read what the bill actually does. Actually, let me save that.

(25:07):
I'm up against my break. I want to talk about
what the bill actually does.

Speaker 3 (25:11):
Again.

Speaker 2 (25:12):
You can go see this for yourself. We're not gonna
take Mama Bear Kristin Harlan's.

Speaker 3 (25:18):
Word for it.

Speaker 2 (25:19):
You can look this up ABE four ninety five, see
what it says. There's a lot out on social media.
In fact, I think when we come back, I'm gonna
finish up what the bill actually does. And then I
want to play a little clip from Pastor Jack Hibbs.
I was talking about it in his service. It's really

(25:39):
rather grievous here, people. One pager signed by a sorry
complete rando with a fake ID can walk off with
your child from school or daycare or wherever your child
is without your and all or consent, and they are

(26:01):
protected legally. There are no background checks. You know what
I have to do if I want to walk onto
a school campus in any sort of capacity, but zero
zero proof of identification, background checks, fingerprinting, parental authorization, none

(26:23):
of that for AB four ninety five. This is a
This one's knock under even my radar, and it has
reared its ugly head. It's in the Senate for voting
very soon. I need to get the timeline on that.
If you were to be compelled to participate and wanted
to voice your opinions about this, now.

Speaker 3 (26:43):
Would be a good time.

Speaker 2 (26:44):
All right, everybody, Mama Bear's Radio, Kristin Hurley here, I
will be right back.

Speaker 4 (26:52):
Mama Bear's Radio. We'll be right back.

Speaker 3 (27:25):
The days were known.

Speaker 6 (27:30):
N the deep blue sky.

Speaker 3 (27:34):
Didn't have a kill.

Speaker 7 (27:38):
Molly, and days stan back happily after days we've been
wooded by these spirites. Oh yes, well and small the tims.

Speaker 3 (27:54):
Since Daddy had.

Speaker 7 (27:56):
Fair we can go what thats us?

Speaker 2 (28:37):
Welcome back to Mama Bears Radio, Kristin Hurley. Here the
new normal, and we are living the new normal life.
So in the new normal includes provisions such as this
the new bill Aby four ninety five. If you're just
joining me, I'm hashing through. Thank you California, and you know.

Speaker 3 (28:57):
What I need.

Speaker 2 (28:58):
I need the kellow I Love You California song. I
need to be able to play that. I do love
the state, but I do love my personal autonomy and
God given freedoms. More and when the state of California
decides to overstep its bounds, like it's kind of doing
right here with EB four ninety five, I get a

(29:21):
little pinched, and everybody else is a little pinched over
this one too. So just to back up, if you're
just joining me, this is a bill authored by what
is her name Rodriguez, assembly Woman Celeste Rodriguez out of
San Fernando, and under the umbrella of like, oh no,
the ice raids are coming to schools and they're yanking

(29:42):
kids out of the classroom or the you know the well,
a kid's going to come home and find it's a
house abandoned because Ice has rated and yanked its as
parents and sent them back over the border. Yes, we
have any enormous national problem ahead of us, ahead of

(30:04):
us and behind us an incredible, incredible wave of illegal
immigrants in the last four years plus, I might add,
but we as a nation have to come to terms
with this. That the gates to the country were wide open.

(30:25):
And as I said last segment, the cruelty here is
not in collecting these people who are not American citizens,
who came.

Speaker 3 (30:37):
Here without the regular.

Speaker 2 (30:39):
Immigration procedures, collecting them and returning them to the country
they belonged to is not the cruelty. The cruelty was
in luring them here in the first place and promising
whatever was promised free stuff. You won't be in trouble,
There won't be a problem. Your case will be stuck

(31:01):
in the courts for ten years and then they'll give
you amnesty. Whatever was said when the teams and teams
and teams and reams and reams of people were brought
purposefully into this country over the last four years, you
cannot deny that, and this administration having to deal with it,
and us as a nation, it's not just like the administration,

(31:23):
it's all of us.

Speaker 3 (31:23):
What do we do about this?

Speaker 2 (31:26):
And so, as I mentioned, even in our local area
PVUSD school board, the it's hot and heavy for oh no,
ice is coming and what if?

Speaker 3 (31:39):
What if?

Speaker 2 (31:41):
And everybody's running around like headless chickens. So this bill
is parroting that.

Speaker 3 (31:47):
Under the guys of oh no.

Speaker 2 (31:50):
If ice raids come and take a kid's parents away
and they're stuck at school alone, anyone can sign a
caretaker authorization AFFI davit again with zero safeguards such as
background checks, fingerprinting, verified identification. You only have to provide

(32:13):
one piece of identification could be as cheesy as a
fake Social Security number and walk away with your kid
without your consent or knowledge.

Speaker 3 (32:23):
I want to go over this bill again. What does
it actually do? This again?

Speaker 2 (32:28):
This is from California Family Counsel. You can find information
on this bill anywhere. While eighty four ninety five is
promoted as a compassionate safeguard for children of detained immigrant parents,
it in fact expands who qualifies as a quote caregiver
to include quote non relative extended family members defined as
any adult with an established familial or mentoring relationship with

(32:51):
the child or a relative of the child, A broad
and loosely defined category. You define for me a mentoring
who has a mentoring relationship with your kid? Anyone can
walk up and claim that.

Speaker 3 (33:06):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (33:07):
Next, this bill authorizes the use of a caregivers Authorization affidavit.
It is one page I'm staring at the PDF right now,
by these individuals, allowing them to assume decision making authority
over a child's schooling and medical care without a court appearance, notorization,
or parental signature. This bill grants caregivers the legal ability

(33:31):
to enroll a child in school and authorize medical, dental,
and mental health treatments, including treatments related to school participation.
This includes kicker here a little asterisk, asterisk asterisk, I
can't say that word. This includes sex trait modification procedures.

Speaker 3 (33:52):
Let that sink in okay.

Speaker 2 (33:55):
This bill does not require schools or daycare facilities to
verify the identity, relationship, or legitimacy of the adult presenting
the caregivers authorization affidavit, while absolving them of any liability
should the child be handed over to a stranger or traffickers.
This bill requires court documents related to joint guardianship arrangements,

(34:20):
and this is appointed in anticipation of a parent's temporary unavailability,
including immigration related detention, to be kept confidential and only
accessible to parties in the case. Disclosure to immigration authorities
is prohibited without a court order based on compelling necessity
and related to immigration enforcement. In short, AB four ninety

(34:48):
five significantly reduces oversight and verification in assigning authority over children,
introducing the potential for confusion and misuse. This is putting
it politely in such a where parental rights and child
safety are at stake, So you know to just point

(35:09):
out California already has mechanisms such as temporary guardianship through
the courts that provide for these scenarios, with safeguards intact,
such as like fingerprinting and background checks and verification and
all that. The notion that compassion must come at the
expense of parental rights and child safety is a false dichotomy. Okay, again,

(35:31):
that's from the California Family Council. There's info. Go ahead
and read the bill. There's info out there on this.
I do want to read when I come back from
my break again. Geez, Louise, these breaks are relentless. When
I come back, I'm going to play just a little
quote from pastor Jack Hibbs. I thought it was a

(35:55):
fairly succinct one minute audio clip talking about this again.

Speaker 3 (36:03):
Am I nuts?

Speaker 2 (36:05):
Does everyone out there that's listening to the show think, well, Kristen,
you're just being a part as a hack and this
is crazy politics and no, no, no, no, no, no,
no no no no no no. I defy anyone to
come up to me and argue with a straight face
that it is okay for a one page piece of

(36:27):
paper and a quote unquote ID to allow someone to
come and pick your kid up from school or daycare,
and off they go with them. Dang it, if I
haven't signed, over the course of my parenthood of three kids,
if I haven't signed fifteen thousand different school forms that

(36:54):
say here are the verified allowable people that are allowed
to come up and pick up my kid in my absence.
I It's been over and over and over again. How
many times no one can come get your kid without
your prior authorization, their name on the little paper in
our database. Kind of a thing. But the state seems

(37:18):
happy to let let caution to the wind with your
kids as collateral to make.

Speaker 3 (37:28):
This a law.

Speaker 2 (37:31):
You can't You can't tell me that this isn't a
ninety nine point nine nine nine nine nine percent issue
that we're all in agreement. This throws caution to the
wind and is a ripe for abuse from people who

(37:52):
do not have your child's best interests at heart, to
say the least. Okay, everyone, Mama Bear's Radio, Safe and
Effective Radio.

Speaker 3 (37:59):
Here. We're gonna take our break and be right.

Speaker 4 (38:01):
Back Mama Bear's Radio Radio. We'll be right back.

Speaker 2 (38:31):
Welcome back to Mama Bear's Radio. Kristin Hurley here we
are talking Abe four ninety five. Oh boy, oh boy.

Speaker 3 (38:42):
Again.

Speaker 2 (38:43):
If you're just tuning in, Kristin Hurley here with Mama
Bear's Radio. The new normal of having to watch out
for crazy rogue legislators going ape s and writing crazy
bills that degrade your rights and your kids is right
and leaves your kids vulnerable to rogue people. So Jack Hibbs,

(39:09):
I don't know if you follow. He's a pastor in
southern California. He often talks about stuff.

Speaker 3 (39:14):
Like this at church. His church is fairly active in.

Speaker 2 (39:22):
You know, keeping tabs on California, and he I didn't
want to play something from his sermon.

Speaker 3 (39:34):
This last weekend. So let me.

Speaker 2 (39:37):
Let Jack weigh in on it. It's it's poignant. I
want everyone to hear again.

Speaker 3 (39:42):
Market bill.

Speaker 6 (39:43):
It is a trafficking bill.

Speaker 5 (39:45):
It is unbelievable, so much so, don't believe me.

Speaker 6 (39:49):
Go to Realimpact dot US. It allows an individual to
obtain this new form that comes with the bill. They
fill it out and they can name a child. John
goes to a school in California and says, I have
this form and I am asking for susie Q to

(40:13):
be saved into my custody.

Speaker 3 (40:14):
I want to take her out of school.

Speaker 6 (40:16):
The bill does not require a background check for this man,
requires no identification, no driver's license, no nothing. There's no
requirement in the bill for the school to call you
to ask you if it's okay if John John takes
your daughter out of school. If this bill passes, I

(40:38):
am I am going to ask you to leave the
state of California. You're going to need to pack up,
and you're gonna.

Speaker 3 (40:44):
Have to get out.

Speaker 6 (40:45):
You gotta get out, You gotta run with your kids,
You got to go.

Speaker 2 (40:52):
Well, that's rather dramatic, but a little bit now how
I feel? It's not nuts? How does this benefit the
purported beneficiaries of this bill?

Speaker 3 (41:06):
Thank you?

Speaker 2 (41:06):
Assembly Woman Celeste. What did we say, Rodriguez? My gosh,
my brain, Rodriguez.

Speaker 3 (41:16):
There we go.

Speaker 2 (41:18):
It purports to help what's probably an incredibly narrow, narrow,
narrow slice of reality. What's going on in the super
super teensky chance that a kid's at school and his
parents have been detained by immigration authorities?

Speaker 3 (41:40):
What not? What not?

Speaker 2 (41:43):
This supposedly remedies that situation by allowing anyone to just
sign a one page piece of paper and walk up
and grab the kid that's going to be an incredibly
small small chance.

Speaker 3 (42:00):
Of any significant numbers.

Speaker 2 (42:01):
And again this leaves the doors wide open for ne'er
do wells and anyone wishing to exploit the system in
which we know there's people out there. So it just it,
it absolutely begs paying attention to stuff like this. This
is not a one sided or a oh it's part

(42:22):
as in politics kind of a thing. No, this is
this is government got mad. This is we, the people
who want who wish just to care for our families
and raise our families and protect our kids, have autonomy
and authority over our kids.

Speaker 3 (42:41):
Not seed that to this state or any other state.

Speaker 2 (42:45):
It's not like, oh, I'd moved to Tennessee where it's
a red state and just seed control of my kids
to the red state.

Speaker 3 (42:52):
No, my kids are my kids. Now.

Speaker 2 (42:56):
I let my tongue in cheek as I say this,
the last one's about to hit ee.

Speaker 3 (43:00):
So I like a little sol on all that big talk.

Speaker 2 (43:05):
But you get my point. So I just want to
encourage everyone to pay attention. We need to work together
to let the state of California know that we don't
think this is appropriate slash legal, and we oppose all
of this. I don't know if it will pass the Senate.
There's a boat coming up. I don't have the date

(43:26):
right in front of me, but we'll give a new
some sign it. I don't know, all right, everybody, So yeah,
I'm at the top of the hour.

Speaker 3 (43:35):
How did that happen?

Speaker 2 (43:37):
I'm only like one fourteenth of the way through my
list of stuff to talk about today. Okay, when we
come back to Protect Young Eyes, I do want to
get through that. It's a really cool rep website and
resource for helping your family defend against the garbage online,
help protect your kids from the addiction of pornography. Right

(44:02):
it kind of you know, I think as people say,
and is I'm about to read an article? Right it
is easy for a kid to stumble upon it.

Speaker 3 (44:11):
It's everywhere.

Speaker 2 (44:12):
It's pervasive, you know, at nine, ten, eleven kind of
a thing, and those stories abound, and pretty soon kids
are able to get their hands on it.

Speaker 3 (44:19):
Kids are wildly little things.

Speaker 2 (44:20):
They are getting their hands on really disgusting content and
then and then and then it's everyone's problem. So to
avoid that, this website and this this article. The CEO
of this Protect Young Ey's website has some fairly decent
informative tech things you can do both relationship with your

(44:46):
kids and technology wise, some tips. So I want to
get into that. Okay, here we go.

Speaker 3 (44:54):
We are do Do Do Do doot.

Speaker 2 (44:58):
Almost to the top of the hour. This is I'm
a Bears Radio Kristin Hurley here, I'll be back in
just a minute.

Speaker 6 (45:05):
Magical is Hot, and the Boy in the Bubble and
the Baby with the Battle.

Speaker 3 (45:09):
In the Hard and I believe these are.

Speaker 1 (45:11):
Days Playsers in the Jungle, Please, I'm the jungle Somewhere.

Speaker 6 (45:22):
You're listening to Ko and wy Selva Beach home of
schoolhouse radios.
