Newsom's 'woke-end': In just two days, California governor signs into law free menstrual products for girls, mandates ethnic studies, requires stores to have gender neutral areas and bans gas-powered lawnmowers
2021-10-12
  • [Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News] Governor Gavin Newsom has signed several notable bills into law in recent days

  • They include a bill that will see California public schools and colleges stocking their restrooms with free menstrual products
    In both the men’s and women’s lavatories, one assumes, because some in each will require them for menstruation, and other for bullet holes.
  • In another 'woke' bill, large department stores must now display products including toys and toothbrushes in gender-neutral ways

  • It does not completely outlaw traditional boys and girls sections at stores but says large stores must also have a gender neutral section to display

  • On Saturday Newsom signed off on a new law banning gas-powered equipment that uses small off-road engines

  • Gas-powered equipment includes generators, lawn equipment, pressure washers, chainsaws, weed trimmers and even golf carts

  • Under the new law the machinery will have to be battery-powered or plug-in

  • Newsom has also signed into law America's first ethnic studies requirement for high school students after five years of debate

  • Students who begin high school in 2026 must pass one semester of a class outlining the past and current struggles of America's marginalized groups

#3  So, if there is a rolling blackout the local hospital cannot use their gas-powered generator? Neither can the local telco Central Office (i.e. no landlines).

#2  Elections do have consequences; and the people of California just finished voting again for all this. So no sympathy.
