SACRAMENTO – Assemblymember Evan Low (D-Campbell) issued the following statement today after Sacramento County Superior Court Judge Raymond Cadei relieved Attorney General Kamala Harris of her duty to prepare a title and summary for the “Sodomite Suppression Act” ballot initiative proposal:
“I am pleased to hear that the Superior Court has agreed with Attorney General Harris’ decision not to issue a title and summary for the Sodomite Suppression Act. The initiative is hateful, attacks innocent people, and if relief was granted, it would have been a waste of state resources. I applaud Attorney General Harris on her leadership on this issue. While the court’s ruling on this egregious initiative proposal is both legally and morally the right action to take, the events bring attention to the need to reform the initiative process.”
