RE: SENATE BILL 729 (Senator Menjivar, Assemblymember Wicks, Senators Portantino and Wiener – Infertility Treatments for all
Dear Senator Menjivar and Senate Health Committee Members:
Our Duty is an international group of parents with no political affiliation or religious leanings.
We apologize in advance for our vulgar exhibits, but we are compelled to demonstrate the perversions to educate you on reality.
Our Duty opposes SB729. This bill will change the definition of “infertility” to include “a person’s inability to reproduce either as an individual or with their partner without medical intervention.” The absurdity of this new definition is beyond the pale – no one is able to reproduce as an individual. Humans are not cloneable. This is basic biology.
The definition also alters what has been traditionally been a medical condition to that of a “status.” Instead of a medical condition precluding fertility, under SB729 one can be infertile merely by not having a sexual partner, or by not having the appropriate biological organs. Under this bill, private insurance must cover the costs of “treating” anyone who is unable to have a baby on their own accord, or with their partner. It would no longer be an elective procedure, [buy a covered procedure] to assist persons – any persons – wishing to have a child. SB729 will create a right – an inalienable right - that all persons who want a baby can purchase a baby. California is already the surrogacy capital of the United States and it will see exponential growth in an industry that, of course, harms women.
A. Anyone Can Buy a Baby Under this Bill
SB729 bill states: “Consistent with Section 1365.5, coverage for the treatment of infertility and fertility services shall be provided without discrimination on the basis of age, ancestry, color, disability, domestic partner status, gender, gender expression, gender identity, genetic information, marital status, national origin, race, religion, sex, or sexual orientation. This subdivision shall not be construed to interfere with the clinical judgment of a physician and surgeon.” (Emphasis added.)
The prohibition against “age” discrimination means that anyone, regardless of age, can force his insurance carrier to pay for him to find him a baby. Could the person be 18? How about 12? Since this legislature believes that 12-year-old children are mature enough to leave their families’ homes without any claim of abuse, incest, self-harm or harm to others (AB665), or consent to drug treatment in secret, why isn’t he mature enough to get himself “fertility treatments” under this bill? Wouldn’t that be discrimination against young people? Would a 65-year-old woman who is infertile be able to force her insurer to cover IVF for her?
Under SB729, no one can be turned down for fertility treatment—whether it’s for surrogacy, IVF or some other medical mechanism for creating a made-to-order baby. A quadriplegic with no partner could get a child. Someone with acute mental issues, drug addiction or alcoholism would be eligible, since those are disabilities. Could someone who is a pedophile get a baby, paid for by insurance?
How about a man who identifies as a woman and wants a baby because his fetish is to breastfeed, as part of sexual pleasure or proof positive that he is a real woman? Yes, his insurance carrier will also be forced to provide him with a baby. (See Exhibit A, – a photo of a man expressing from his nipples some unholy, synthetic concoction – likely by using domperidone, a non-FDA-approved drug that causes infants to have irregular heartbeat– while he pleasures himself; Exhibit B, a photo of another man with a baby sucking the same chemical compound[1]; Exhibit C, transwoman writing for Them magazine explains how it is done.)
Anticipating the argument that one might believe these extreme scenarios would never occur, given the bill’s purported “saving language”— “This subdivision shall not be construed to interfere with the clinical judgment of a physician and surgeon” — We regret to inform you that the traditional world, which placed children’s innocence and health above all else, left our Golden State long ago. Neither physicians nor surgeons are fail-safes in today’s California.[2]
Jeanine Salomone, a lesbian who was not interested in having relations with a man, took her partner’s egg that was fertilized by Salomone’s brother’s sperm (read that again) and was artificially impregnated. Her doctor was Vicken Sahakian in California. Jeanine was 62 years old when she gave birth. Not to be outdone, Maria del Carmen Bousada de Lara gave birth to twins at age 67 and then died a year later of cancer, leaving her children as orphans. Dr. Sahakian of California was her Dr. Mengele[3] for that procedure too. These aberrations will become commonplace, because one will no longer be required to be a wealthy narcissist in order to get a baby. As long as one has health insurance in California, anyone can get a child, with help from Dr. Sahakian or his colleagues who place money above ethics. And we know that legislation requiring Medi-Cal to cover these “infertility” treatments is just around the corner.
B. SB729 Will Harm Poor Women and Women of Color
In keeping with moving California as far to the left as possible and placing men’s rights above all else, it will be women who will be harmed.[4] This means biological women—who are now referred to as non-men (or is that for lesbians only?)[5] or “bonus-hole havers.”[6] And not just any women, but women in need of economic assistance, who will sell their wombs for cash. In fact, it is the poor women who will be used in California’s growing business of commercializing babies, as exposed in Laura Harrison’s 2016 book, “Brown Bodies, White Babies: The Politics of Cross-Racial Surrogacy.”
Men renting wombs already have little regard for the women-vessels, but when SB729 renders cost a non-issue, the floodgates of surrogacy will be opened wide. So many poor women will be able to sell their bodies and their health to pay the rent.
By way of example, Britt[7] agreed to carry a baby for a homosexual couple. One of the men contributed the sperm to fertilize the egg supplied by Britt. While pregnant, Britt discovered that she had breast cancer, which is a known risk from the cocktail of drugs used to prepare the “rental womb” for implantation of the fertilized egg. The purchasers were quite upset by this development, in light of the fact that the chemotherapy needed to save Britt would damage their purchase. The annoyed surrogate fathers even went so far as to call Britt’s oncologists and treating hospital threatening to sue them if treated Britt for her cancer. They owned that bonus-hole-haver. Britt could have birthed the 25-week-old baby prematurely, with predicted medical complications—which the purchasers did not want. But the purchasers also did not want Britt to give the child up for adoption, despite families at the ready, because they did not want their precious DNA out there in the world. Therefore, said the contract holders, Britt could either die of cancer or terminate the pregnancy. Today, we know that the baby is not alive, but Britt is not willing to state whether the baby was born alive and then left to die. Britt has a GoFundMe page to help her pay for her cancer treatments. The surrogacy money disappeared, along with the baby.
Vote No on SB729.
Respectfully,
Erin Friday, Esq. Jennifer Kennedy, Esq.

THE BILL’S TRAJECTORY
Currently, the “Get Yourself a Baby Bill” has passed the Senate and is in the Assembly side. It passed the Assembly Health Committee, and moves to Appropriations Committee (the cost of this bill with be all Californians - employers’ cost for health insurance will increase so prices of services and goods will rise and employees’ contribution to health insurance will also rise - all Californians will be part of the baby-buying industry. If the bill passes in Appropriations, it will go to the Assembly floor for all Assembly members to vote on. If it passes, Governor Newsom can sign or veto. At each new destination, the bill can die. So there are two chances left to kill the bill. Insurance carriers are opposing the bill because of costs only.
Want to help stop SB729, start with a call to your Assembly Member - find him/her here.
Then call of the other members. Contacts are here. You can just say that you oppose the bill. Pass this message to your friends.
You cannot complain about the laws if you sit silently thinking a white knight will come in and save the day - you are the knight.
The Author and Co-Authors
Senate Bill 729 is authored by Senator Caroline Menjivar, who is a self-proclaimed lesbian; married with no children. According to her biography, she is interested in helping women who are victims of domestic abuse. She trained as an emergency mental health crisis therapist. She volunteered for GLSEN, one of the most significant advocacy groups pushing gender ideology at schools. (GLSEN writes school curriculum that provides transgender instruction in every class, even math, which sadly (sarcasm) has the least amount of indoctrination.) The hypocrisy in her domestic abuse work will become evident.
One of the co-authors is Assembly Member Buffy Wicks who is married and has a very young daughter. (We wonder how comfortable she would be if her daughter asks to have her puberty stopped.) Assembly Member Wicks is allegedly focused on “fighting for equity, equal opportunity and economic security - with a particular focus on policies affecting women and children” according to her website. We will let you be the judge as to whether her policies harm women and children.
Assembly Member Evan Low self-identifies as a member of the LGBQ/other community. He is a darling of tech in his Silicon-Valley district. He is also the man who ushered in the infamous “misinformation” bill that forces medical boards to investigate any medical provider who dare disseminate any “misinformation” above Covid-19. Regardless of how you feel about Covid treatments, this law is both “big-brother” scary and a violation of First Amendment Rights. Medical progress requires that medical providers look at alternative treatments otherwise, we could still be treated with leeches.
Senator Anthony Portantino is also a co-author. When I told him that child protective services came to my house because I demanded that the school stop calling my daughter by a boy’s name, he empathized with my daughter revealing that he hates being called “Tony”, completely missing the point. He was nonplussed when I asked him if he would call the police on someone calling him “Tony”.
Tony is beholden to the California Teacher’s Association, the most powerful special interest group in California. Tony, however, is starting to feel heat from his mostly Democrat Armenian constituents who are overwhelmingly against Glendale Unified School District’s teaching of highly sexualized material and gender ideology. Tony is seeking higher office when his term is up, but we are betting that all of the donations from the CTA won’t help him overcome the rejection by the rank and file voters who are planning on tossing him to the curb for his continuous onslaught of anti-parent bills. His bill SB596 seeks to jail parents up to a year for disrupting a school board meeting. More about that later. He is also the author of SB509, a bill that will cost California more than $50 million to instruct students grades 1 through 12 about mental health issues such as anorexia, cutting, self-harm, suicide - all social contagions. Planting the seeds in 6 year olds. Of course, the school will have resources for the kids, with no requirement for parental involvement. Moving public schools closer to being just giant mental health institutions.
Senator Wiener - oh -what to say about him? Let’s start with the fact that he authored the bill that places convicted rapists and abusing men in women’s prisons. He also turned California into a transgender sanctuary permitting an out-of-state parent, even a non-custodial parent, to abscond with her child and hide out in California so the one parent can transition the child without interference of the pro-reality parent. The same bill that permits a runaway child to find refuge in California and get free wrong-sex hormones and surgeries, and the opportunity to join the haram of a sex-trafficker desiring the novelty of a female with breast scars to service his clients. She’ll be extra interesting with her facial hair and enlarged clitoris. And because of Senator Wiener’s repeal of the loitering law last year, the police will not be able to bring the child into for questioning so that the sex-trafficked minor can be saved. It’s going to be a banner year for sex-traffickers.
CA LAWMAKERS’ VOTES
