Groomer Al Muratsuchi Still Refuses to Grant Hearing for Parental Notification Bill AB 1314

Predatory Mark Berndt and Groomer Al Muratsuchi


California State Asm. Al Muratsuchi is one of the biggest cheerleaders for the drop-out factories we used to call "public schools."

When he first got elected in 2012, he was a guaranteed foot-soldier for the teachers unions, who bought his campaign, bought his seat, and bought him body and soul.

One of the first bills he introduced into the legislature?

AB 375, a bill that would have made it HARDER to fire pervert teachers. The bill was so bad, that even Governor Brown had to veto it. 

Here's the full ad on Al's support for that terrible piece of legislation:


Al's bill would have allowed predators like Mark Berndt, the notorious serious child abuser from Miramonte Elementary School in LAUSD, to get away with his crimes, some suggesting that he had molested as many as 100 students!

Groomer Al Muratsuchbi also supported AB 1266 in 2013, which allowed males to use female restrooms in public schools across the state. Notice how a similar bill has NOT passed to force every private and public facility to allow men to use women's restrooms throughout the state, too. The kids are always targeted, and the groomers get to groom on campuses across the state.

And Groomer Al doesn't care. He has no problem pushing social engineering and outright abuse onto California's children.

Fast forward to 2020, and Groomer Al voted for SB 145, a bill that made it easier for sex offenders to avoid the sex offender registration. Yes. If a 24-year-old had sex with a 14-year-old, he (or she) could avoid the sex offender registry based on the discretion of the judge. That's what the bill did, and Groomer Al went all in on allowing sex offenders to abuse kids and above the sex offender registry.

How sickening does it get in Sacramento? Does anyone have any shame left in that town? Worse yet, Muratsuchi was the tie-breaking vote. It would have died on the floor of the State Assembly if he had voted for "No."

SB 145 was so bad, that outspoken progressive Lorena Gonzalez spoke out against the bill, and she urged a "No" vote on the floor of the State Assembly. As a chair for one of the key committees in Sacramento, that was an unprecedented move, her going against the state legislative leadership. And yet, Groomer Al voted for it.

In 2023 and even today, Groomer Al Muratsuch is blocking AB 1314 from getting a hearing in the CA State Assembly. This commonsense bill would require school districts to inform parents if their students are going by different names, pronouns, or claiming to be a different sex at the school.

Here's the full report from California Family Council:

California Assembly Education Committee Chair Al Muratsuchi is still blocking public debate at the state capitol over parent notification in schools despite polls showing the voters overwhelmingly support it. Last year, Assemblyman Bill Essayli introduced AB 1314, a bill requiring public schools to notify parents if a child starts identifying at school as a gender that does not align with the sex listed on his or her birth certificate. 

The legislation was assigned to the Assembly Committee on Education, but Muratsuchi refused to set the bill for a hearing. This week there is an opportunity for him to change his mind before Friday’s deadline. But Muratsuchi is still refusing.

“Nothing good comes out of keeping secrets from parents,” Essayli told a crowd gathered outside the state capitol last week. “Nobody loves their children more than their parents. If children are struggling with their identity; if they are struggling with anything at school, they need their parents. To isolate them from their parents is to do them harm.”

“Unfortunately, this legislature is so arrogant, they are so pompous, they refuse to even give my bill a hearing,” he complained. “They don’t even want to take a vote. That’s how little regard they have for the people of this state.”

Muratsuchi explained the justification for his decision in a press release last April. “As Chair of the Education Committee, I will not be setting AB 1314 for a hearing, not only because the bill is proposing bad policy, but also because a hearing would potentially provide a forum for increasingly hateful rhetoric targeting LGBTQ youth.” 

Assemblyman Al Muratsuchi

Greg Burt, vice president of the California Family Council, says this decision reveals the contempt some lawmakers have for the Constitutional rights of parents to guide and oversee the upbringing of their children. “Why is a discussion about keeping parents informed about the struggles of their children seen as threat towards LGBTQ-identified youth?” Burt asks. “Parents, keen to protect their children, always want to be informed about their kids’ lives. This is true for parents no matter what their political or religious affiliation.”  

A recent California poll confirms this contention. A SPRY Strategies poll from last November shows liberal and conservative voters agree on parent notification. The poll asks the following question: 

A school board voted to notify parents if their child identifies as transgender or the opposite sex. The Attorney General is suing that school district. Do you agree parents should be notified if their child identifies as transgender in school?”

58.1 percent of the respondents said they “strongly agree” with this statement. An additional 14 percent said they “somewhat agree.” Another Rasmussen poll from last May yielded similar results.  

After Essayli’s bill was refused a hearing last year, he joined with a group of parental rights organizations (Coalition for Parental Rights) to promote parent notification policies in local school districts. (read more here) So far 10 California School Districts have implemented a notification policy of their own, even though California Attorney General Rob Bonta filed a lawsuit against one of the school districts over the policy.

What is it with Creepy Groomer Al Muratsuchi, anyway? Why is he so determined to allow perverted adults in the classroom to get away with all kinds of predatory behavior against children?!

This is really disturbing!

At the May, 2023 town hall that he hosted in the Torrance City Council chambers, he received loud boos from the audience for blocking this bill in the State Assembly Education committee, which he currenlty chairs. I was stunned at the level of outrage directed towards him, considering that most of the voters are pretty moderate-to-liberal on most cultural issues. However,for protecting the systemic grooming of children in California classrooms. Strangely enough, he does not have the full video of that town hall on his YouTube channel ...

What will it take for voters to pay attention in the South Bay and start electing better people who actually care about the health and welfare of children? Why do so many voters from El Segundo to Palos Verdes turn a blind eye to this creepy groomer assemblyman, who is determined to give predator teachers and their enablers more protections than children and parents?

Tell Asm. Muratsuchi to vigin AB 1314 a hearing and vote YES!
