QuoteA new report (https://www.city-journal.org/article/california-gay-business-contracts-utilities) from the City Journal revealed the "LGBTBE Certification" process that individuals must go through should they wish to receive preferential treatment in the taxpayer-funded contract bidding process in the state of California.
Libs of TikTok on X: "I can't believe this is real... California has a gay certification checklist to ensure taxpayer funded contracts only for lgbtq people, are being awarded to people who are gay enough Extremely bizarre, not to mention highly illegal.

(https://x.com/libsoftiktok/status/2066965960825749672)The program came into being after years of Democrat leadership that constantly pushed the envelope on progressive policy, ultimately culminating into a body that granted gay-owned businesses lucrative contracts through the California Public Utilities Commission. They faced pressure from state activists who claimed that anti-gay discrimination was rife within "the ranks of the utility companies." The result was that $633 million would be granted solely to business that could prove that they were owned by gays.
I wonder what one has to do to prove that he is gay. Is a demonstration required? Actually, I think I'd rather not know.
