California AB 495, with Greg Burt

September 30, 2025

AB 495 is a troubling bill in California that’s just passed the legislature and is heading to the governor’s desk for his signature or veto. The bill would allow for any adult to make custody-like educational or medical decisions for any minor child, simply by signing an affidavit claiming they are “related to the child by blood, adoption, or affinity within the 5th degree of kinship.” No proof would be required for this process to take place.

Welcome back to the EPPiC Broadcast ! Today, Greg Burt, Vice President of the California Family Council, is here with us to discuss this bill, its ramifications, and potential consequences.

The   EPPiC Broadcast   is hosted by Michael Ramey, president of the Parental Rights Foundation. You can sign up for email alerts to keep yourself informed on parental rights news at https://parentalrightsfoundation.org/get-involved/.
