HELP REPEAL SB 777!

As those of you who read our blog know, I urged voters and citizens to write to the Governor and urge him to veto several bad bills including SB 777. Unfortunately the Governor signed SB 777 and several other bills advancing the homosexual agenda in our public schools. SB 777 in particular now forces all public schools, including charter schools, to teach that the homosexual lifestyle is natural and good. In fact, SB 777 does not allow any opposition views whether based on health, religious, moral or any other reasons. There are no parental opt-out provisions, religious or 1st Amendment exemptions or any local control by locally elected school boards.

Two of our guiding principles at Education Alliance is respect for parental rights and local control by our local elected school boards. SB 777 is in direct opposition to those two principles.

The electorate can fight this bad law if we all act together and act quickly. Sacramento based Capitol Resource Institute has launched a petition drive to place SB 777 before the voters in a referendum. We must gather enough signatures by early January to have the referendum placed on the June primary election ballot. With everyone's help we can do it! I urge you to visit CRI's web site for this worthy effort at http://www.saveourkids.net/ and obtain from CRI petitions to gather signatures. You can also contribute financially to this effort at the web site.
