We went to California, and you won’t believe what happened!
Family Policy Alliance joined with California Family Council and Exodus Cry at the California Capitol on the day of the first committee hearing to protect kids from porn.
You don’t have to be a political expert to know that California Gov. Gavin Newsom is no pro-family ally. And the California legislature is even further to the left.
But this week we were at the state capitol in Sacramento to testify and lobby for a bill to protect California kids from online pornography through age verification requirements.
Crazy? It might sound that way, especially in the state that’s the biggest producer of pornography.
But we didn’t think it was crazy for three reasons:
Kids EVERYWHERE need protection from the onslaught of online pornography.
Momentum is on our side!
The Age Verification Coalition that we’re blessed to lead has now helped eight states pass this cutting-edge legislation in 2024!
Our savvy allies at California Family Council saw an opportunity and urged us to join them and invest our time and resources in the Golden State.
So what happened? The first committee heard the bill this week. Joseph Kohm, an attorney and Family Policy Alliance’s Director of Public Policy, spent time meeting with legislators and was one of three expert witnesses in favor of the bill. The result: the committee PASSED the bill by a vote of 10 to 0!

The bill still has a long way to go to become law, but this stunning result is remarkable! California legislators finally acknowledging the threat pornography poses to kids is a victory that cannot be overstated.
