The governor of California has opted to veto a bill that would have allowed judges to state that a child can have more than two parents.
Governor Jerry Brown vetoed SB 1476, issuing a statement on Sunday that while he sympathizes with the bill's intentions, he is concerned about unintended consequences of the legislation.
"I am troubled by the fact that some family law specialists believe the bill's ambiguities may have unintended consequences," wrote Brown. "I am returning Senate Bill 1476 without my signature … I would like to take more time to consider all of the implications of this change."
Ron Prentice, CEO for the California Family Council, told The Christian Post that his organization was one of many that had called on California citizens to contact the legislature and the governor to oppose the bill.
