Scott Wiener is trying to change the slogan from "Abolish ICE" to "Abolish and replace ICE."

I guess he figures there still needs to be *some* agency that deports international students who criticize Israel, a Trump regime priority he's bolstered in California by co-authoring #AB715.

"#AmericanJewishCommittee (#AJC) welcomed a federal court ruling today ensuring that #AB715, #California’s newly enacted law protecting #publicschool #students from bias and discrimination in the #classroom, will go into effect on Jan. 1.

Denying a challenge that sought to block the law, #US #DistrictCourt Judge Noël Wise, said the state had the right to regulate what is taught in public-#school #classrooms and when.

“As public-school #education belongs to the government, the government may regulate [#teachers’] speech to accord with the government’s #educational goals. It is of no significance that the curricula and the attendant speech required to teach it may advance a single viewpoint to the exclusion of another.”

The #Court’s ruling upheld that AB 715—which bars teachers from injecting personal beliefs and bias into instruction and provides added protections for all students, including Jewish students—is #constitutional..." 😬

Another crime that can't be freely discussed in the UC system on pain of students being expelled and faculty losing their jobs, thanks to SF's Scott Wiener and his #AB715.

The ancient Palestinian town of Sebastia in the northern West Bank is a testament to 5,000 years of Palestinian history. Israel announced that it plans to seize the village and its archaeological sites. https://mondoweiss.net/2025/12/an-ancient-palestinian-town-in-the-west-bank-may-soon-no-longer-exist-because-israel-plans-on-stealing-it/

The new law conflates criticism of Zionism with antisemitism and punishes educators for teaching truthful information.

In general I think it is unhealthy that California governors regularly veto bills with strong support from their own party and that the Legislature never overrides the veto even if the bill passed with 2/3s I do want Newsom to veto #AB715 though. Censoring human rights convos in education = bad
Few people realize SF's @scottwiener.bsky.social coauthored a bill that "would clearly increase California’s authority to take action against school employees for actions judged to be antisemitic—using a standard that encompasses...some criticism of Israel’s government." #AB715

Bill targeting antisemitism in...
Call to action - call #CaliforniaGovernor #Newsom (916 445-2841) and tell him #no on #AB715. No to extremists controlling
