On March 29, the California Assembly Elections Committee passed AB 651, by a vote of 5-2. All Democrats on the committee voted for the bill and all Republicans voted against. The bill requires circulators who are paid to circulate an initiative, referendum or recall petition to wear a badge. The badge must identify the employer and must be in type that is at least 30-point. The bill’s authors are Assemblyman Ben Hueso (D-San Diego) and Senator Juan Vargas (D-San Diego).
The bill also requires individuals or organizations who pay people to get an initiative on the ballot to register with the Secretary of State annually, and pay a fee, and identify all owners, partners, and officers of the organization. The bill also requires employers to give the Secretary of State a copy of any instructions to employees.
It is peculiar that so many bills like this only attempt to regulate circulators who work on initiatives, referenda, and recalls, and not petitions to place parties or candidates on the ballot.
The EVIL party hack gerrymander robots have been becoming more and more ENEMIES of the People — just in case folks have been asleep since 1929.
i.e. initatives, referenda and recalls are direct threats to the party hack robots.
P.R. and App.V. – to END the rule of the EVIL party hack robots.

Wow! Now AB 651 is out of Committee and it passed down
party lines. So we will have curculators reduced to
slavery. They will be required to wear “Charagmas”,
viz., Mark of the Beast. See: Revelation 14: 9-12.
Sincerely, Mark Seidenberg, Vice Chairman, American

Are the party hack gerrymander robots in CA THE EVIL WORST in the U.S.A. or what — i.e. the district sizes driving each incumbent totally powermad ???
Will it take the U.S.A. armed forces to liberate CA — i.e. enforcing the Republican Form of Govt clause in Art. IV, Sec. 4 ???
Since when does one have to pay a fee to exercise constitutional rights ???
