Since January, 261 California prison inmates have requested transfers to prisons aligning with their gender identity, the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) said.
Democratic California Governor Gavin Newsom signed S.B. 132 into law in January, a bill that requires the CDCR to ask every individual entering the department’s custody to specify their pronouns, their gender identity, and whether they identify as transgender, nonbinary, or intersex.
The law requires that CDCR house the individual in a “correctional facility designated for men or women based on the individual’s preference”.Since the bill went into effect in January, 261 inmates have requested “gender-based housing” transfers. The vast majority of these requests were from inmates requesting to be transferred to female facilities, and only six inmates did not request to be in a women’s facility.
Prison inmates at Chowchilla told the Los Angeles Times that “men are coming” and that the prisoners should anticipate sexual violence.
“That, if we think it’s bad now, be prepared for the worst. That it’s going to be off the hook, it’s going to be jumping,” 41-year-old Tomiekia Johnson reported that staffers said. “They say we’re going to need a facility that’s going to be like a maternity ward. They say we’re going to have an inmate program where inmates become nannies.”

The 20th century was a turbulent one for Spain. In the 1930s the country fought a fierce battle to avoid becoming another communist territory. In the end communism was defeated, but Spain paid a high price, a very painful civil war.
After the war ended, General Franco’s authoritarian government kept Spain out of World War II and concentrated on restoring order, which he did as successfully as the chaotic situation permitted.
For its part, communism never forgave Spain for its defeat. For decades, it had crouched like a wolf waiting to pounce on its prey. The communists waited patiently, laying low and preparing for the moment to strike.
Franco died in 1975, leaving the country with a strong middle class, a limited monarchy, and a parliamentary government. In 1978, under the new government, the wolf of communism saw its opportunity and patiently began to prey on its victim.
For example, today, official figures for abortions in Spain report some 100,000 unborn children murdered every year. The same number of children are born in Spain now as in the 18th century, and that the country’s birth rate is today one of the lowest in the world.But it’s not all bad news from Spain. For example, HazteOír – with its international counterpart, CitizenGo – has conducted awareness campaigns to combat the anti-life ideology that has a transcendental dimension as well. Thanks to them many people have come to realise that what is happening in Spain is far from normal.
The movement includes the Family Forum, the Mothers Network, the Godmother Foundation, the Federation of Pro-Life Associations, the Family Policy Institute, and many others. On the legal level, the Christian Lawyers Association has achieved great success in its legal opposition to the excesses of anti-life and anti-religion politicians.
Most recently, the Assembly for Life, Liberty and Dignity has been born, determined to do battle and uniting the efforts of like-minded institutions.
