Democrats in California want to get rid of either George Washington or Abraham Lincoln’s birthday as a holiday. Their suggested replacement has patriots outraged.
We’ve talked about California a lot lately. I know, it’s getting annoying. But it seems like the Golden State is determined to ruin what’s left of its reputation. The super-liberal leadership of California is pushing one bad idea after another. These toxic policies are bad, even for Democrats. Nevertheless, they are pushing full steam ahead.
As a result, the state is suffering. Gov. Jerry Brown’s policies put criminals and illegals ahead of Americans. Bad minimum wage laws are driving companies from the state. Legalized drugs have caused homelessness to explode. High taxes are crippling job opportunities. And, of course, the lack of solid infrastructure continues to plague millions of citizens.
Let’s not forget it’s sanctuary status that forces local police to protect criminal aliens from the government.
Now, we’ve learned of another measure that insults our country. A left-wing lawmaker is pushing for a bill that will erase either Washington’s or Lincoln’s birthday as a holiday. Guess what they want to put in its place? “International Socialist Workers’ Day,” or “May Day.” That’s right, California liberals are no longer pretending that they aren’t Commies.
Patriotic Americans are outraged.
A California assemblyman vehemently argued against a bill that would adopt International Workers’ Day as a paid holiday.
The bill, introduced by Assemblyman Miguel Santiago (D), would designate the third Monday in February “as a single school holiday to be known as ‘Presidents’ Day.’”
“Are we in competition to become the laughingstock of the United States?” Assemblyman Matthew Harper (R) asked. “This is ridiculous. This is insane.”
The bill would subsequently get rid of either George Washington or Abraham Lincoln’s birthday as a holiday and designate May 1 as “International Workers’ Day.”
International Socialist Workers’ Day, or “May Day” had been observed in countries under Communist rule and was an official holiday of the Soviet Union.
“Seriously, the substitution of adding International Socialist Workers’ Day? May Day? The day of parades in the Soviet Union?” Harper said. “I’m aghast that a bill like this would be able to get through committee.” [Source: Fox News]
Surprised? Don’t be. This is what liberals do. They try to eradicate our history, traditions, and values — and replace them with socialist/communist garbage. Liberals want to get rid of the free market, private wealth, and the worship of God. They have to do this if they are to install socialism onto our country.
It’s no surprise that they’d do this while insulting two of our greatest presidents. George Washington was our Founding Father. He was the first president who helped establish our great country. His example has inspired every other president. Lincoln led our country during one of our darkest eras, the Civil War. He saw the nation reunited. Thanks to his leadership, slavery was abolished for good.
Both these men deserve to be remembered and celebrated by every American. But what does California want? For their people to forget our leaders and instead observe a holiday invented by communists. A celebration of “workers” is a way for socialist/communist leaders to exalt the working man. It is a way to highlight their struggles, as a result of the “evil” rich. You know, the people who actually create jobs.
Democrats have always exploited the working classes for votes. Yet whenever they get into power, does anything get better? Of course not. Their only solutions involve higher taxes, bigger government, and toxic programs. The working man is punished by the corruption and abuse of liberals in power.
Only one California leader is brave enough to stand up to this bill. What about the others? Will the rest of the state allow our Founding Fathers to be erased so a socialist holiday is observed? I hope not.
