Orange County GOP Slams Governor Newsom's Unconstitutional Executive Order

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
April 30, 2020

PHONE: (714) 453-0900
Statement on Governor Newsom's Order to Close All Beaches and Hikin Trails
ORANGE COUNTY, CA – Hon. Fred M. Whitaker, Chairman of the Republican Party of Orange County, released the following statement on Governor Newsom's order to close all California beaches and hiking trails:

“We are greatly angered that Governor Newsom decided to close all beaches and hiking trails starting this Friday. It is a complete slap in the face to local control and has nothing to do with health.

The Orange County Board of Supervisors and local city councils are the best to determine the status of public areas such as beaches and hiking trails. These local bodies looked at the data, consulted with health experts, and more important their constituents before deciding to keep our beaches open.
 
Every local law enforcement entity found last weekend’s beach usage in Orange County to be in compliance with social distancing. Yet King Gavin decided press stories were more worthy of trust than law enforcement. I guess we should not be surprised.

It has been a long six weeks since the Governor issued his original stay at home order. Orange County and California residents cooperated and flattened the curve. His actions are arrogant and unnecessary.

From his lack of transparency with the legislature on spending to closing our public spaces - it is clear Gavin Newsom thinks he can control all aspects of society without question.

A pandemic does not cancel our constitution, our branches of government or our right to be governed by those we elected in our local communities.”

Here is the template letter which you can send out:

Dear CO State Senate Health Committee:


My name is ______, and I am a Colorado Resident and member of MassResistance.

We are the international pro-family group that makes the difference.

Our Colorado Chapter has informed us of grave concerns regarding a bill which will be brought before your committee tomorrow afternoon.

I am urging each of you to reject HB19-1032, legislation which has been termed "comprehensive sex-ed" and which would overrule the right of individual school districts to teach only abstinence to their students.

Here are the reasons why:

1. It erodes local control for city and county school boards.
2. It infringes on parental rights.
3. The legislation will teach students that they can engage in high-risk, deviant behaviors without consequence, when such pronouncements are patently false.
4. This sex-ed will normalize deviant behaviors which will short the lifespan of young people and harm them mental as well as physically.

Please vote no. This bill should not even leave committee at 1:30pm on February 28th, 2019.

Please contact me for more information.
