Another California Bill for Mandatory Badges for Petitioners

In the last session of the California legislature, a bill was introduced to force petition circulators to wear badges, saying where they are registered to vote. That bill did not pass. Now Assemblymember Ben Hueso (D-Chula Vista) has introduced AB 651. It requires circulators to wear badges in at least 30-point type identifying who hired the circulator to collect signatures, if the circulator is indeed being paid. The bill only applies to initiative, referendum, and recall petitions, but not to petitions to place a candidate or a party on the ballot.

  1. How about we make the same politicians wear these same badges. Whenever they are doing any functions in public then they shall wear badges saying who their biggest donors are.

  2. How about a tee shirt for MORON incumbents —

    I am a party hack MORON-
    fighting for me and not you.

    in 1000 point type.

    Would there be enough room on their suits to make the writing legible?

  4. # 1, 3 How about the top 10 donors to each robot party hack incumbent – in 100 point font ???

    Stimulate the tee shirt biz NOW.

  5. Is there any way to draft a bill like this that prevents the badges from saying “Paid by the Committee for Motherhood and Apple Pie” rather than identifying the real source of the money?
