DING DONG…the bill is dead! The wicked bill is dead.
2022 Legislative session has come to an end. On the very last day of session, SB 866 was put into inactive file. SB 866 is officially dead.
AB 1940: School Based Health Centers also made it to the Governor’s desk.
Recap of bad bills from 2022 session.
With the help of all of your calls, emails, and collaboration of many other organizations, we managed to kill 6 major bad bills. The most drawn out was SB 866.
On the last day of the California Legislative Session, Senator Scott Wiener (D) moved SB866 in the inactive file. The bill is officially dead for the rest of the Legislative Session.
SB866 Minors: Vaccine Consent would have allowed minors 15 and older to consent to the COVID-19 Vaccine and any other vaccine that meets the recommendations of the ACIP of the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention without the knowledge or consent of the parent or guardian of the minor.
When the bill was originally introduced the age limit was 12, it was then amended to a higher age limit to secure votes. If Senator Wiener aims to bring it back, he will have to start all over the next legislative session.
OUR PRESS RELEASE:
August, 31, 2022 - 11:30am PST - Sacramento, California
SB 866 California Senator Wiener's bill that would have allowed youths as young as fifteen years old to be given vaccines without parental consent., is DEAD! Earlier today Senator Wiener released a a statement saying that he did not have the votes and was putting the bill in the Inactive file.
"The tide has officially turned in California. What happened today was not the product of a minority, fringe, extremist group. It was the result of thousands of tireless hours of millions of Californians uniting, educating and empowering each other, and rising up together to take our seats at the political table where we belong and have the right to be. It was the product of measured, respectful, informed, consistent efforts across all political, religious, racial, professional spectra, meeting with our elected representatives to educate and inform them and ensure that they represent and protect the Will of the People. While we as lawyers – and doctors, nurses, teachers, parents, concerned citizens and human beings – still have a tremendous amount of work to do truly turn our state around, today marks a tremendous moment in California history. Today marks the day that we KNOW that we have the power and RIGHT to turn our communities into what exactly what we want them to be."

WE DID IT. SB 866 IS DEAD!
History was made today!
The sacred bond between parents and their children can never be compromised. This bill has brought together an army of parents, faith leaders, organizations, all united to protect the children of California. By instinctually knowing protecting the children means defending parental rights at all costs.
That is why all of us have sent letters, emails, endless trips to the Capitol, and calls to action. We couldn’t sleep until this bill was defeated.
Undersand this: There will never be a compromise when it comes to parental rights. Without the loving guardian, a child is vulnerable to the coercion from other adults, including bullying and duress to succumb to medical treatments. You cannot remove the most important part of protecting a minor: THE PARENT.
In less than 6 days, 3100 citizens and hundreds of organizations have co-signed THE DECLARATION OF OPPOSITION - all united to defeat SB 866. A real unity, with a common unwavering purpose, bringing together Republicans, Democrats, vaccinated and non-vaccinated, faith leaders, parents, grand parents, citizens, members of all races, creeds and walks of life.
You are what made history today. This is how we defeated SB 866. This victory will ripple across the nation as a clarion call and symbol that we CAN WIN. No one comes between us and our children. CALIFORNIA YOU DID IT!
Thank you,
PERK TEAM
