California Assembly Bill 495 (AB 495), the Family Preparedness Act, would allow anyone who fills out an online form saying they are a caretaker, to remove a child from school and take custody of them.
Pastor Jack Hibbs of Calvary Chapel, Chino Hills, tells Jenna Ellis of Jenna Ellis in the Morning on AFR that it's impossible to overstate how dangerous this bill is.
“This is a pedophile's dream come true. If some guy has been eyeing your daughter or your son from down the street of your house, that guy can take your kid out,” Hibbs informs.
He's telling parents in the Golden State that, if this bill passes, it's time to leave the state. For the rest of the Christians in California, he's asking them to show up in force tomorrow on the steps of the state Capitol in Sacramento.
“Tuesday, I am asking everybody in the state of California – I mean everybody – to show up at the state Capitol. We've got a permit to do this, and we are going to rally at the state Capitol, and when we have shown up in force, Newsom has backed down in the past,” states Hibbs.
Hibbs says that, for all his faults, Governor Gavin Newsom is a politician at heart.
“He actually goes with who makes the biggest noise. And so, if he looks out his window and sees 5,000 people – which has happened before – and if he sees that we are against this… he's got presidential aspirations,” Hibbs says.
AB 495 expands those who are authorized to execute the Caregivers Authorization Affidavit to include a “nonrelative extended family member.”
The Sacramento County Public Law Library states that the Caregiver’s Authorization Affidavit is used as substitute for legal guardianship when parents need someone else to care for their child. California Courts Self-Help Guide says this affidavit does not need to be signed by the parents, does not get filed with the court, and does not have to be notarized.
According to California Legislative Information, the California affidavit does not give the caretaker legal custody of the child and is invalid if the child no longer lives with the caretaker. The form does require a California drivers license or other form of identification to be given along with the home address of the caretaker.
