Why is everything a “loophole”?

Since we are a sanctuary state the exception would be if you are a illegal alien.

Meh. Doesn’t seem like this will effect RC’s in any way (thankfully), but will certainly cost the state, counties, and cities more money. Election season is the worst as are politicians that abuse their power this way for nothing more than votes under completely false pretense.

Unless I’m missing something it’s a waste of effort with either 90 days or the 15 days this bill requires. We have 5 days to register and I am going to guess, when we register, they (law enforcement) kinda get the idea that we are there and don’t really need the DOJ to tell them.

I must be missing something.

I just added 3 comments on the article. Please add yours.

“Prohibited from loitering”?

Since when?

Sorry AO but that is not exactly correct. I just visited these sites and they appear to be in effect. Whether they are enforcing them or if they have all been repealed is another question. As far as I can tell they are still ordinances that have not been repealed and this was just a quick look.
For clarification, and proper citations of some of the 482 different municipality codes in California alone (It is not reasonable to expect Plaintiff to cite every California local ordinance) see examples: Apple Valley Chapter 11.54.010 http://www.applevalley.org/government/municipal-code/title-11-peace-morals-and-safety#Chapter%2054 [visited on April 13, 2108]; Arcadia Municipal Code Chapter 9.4 of Article IV ORDINANCE NO. 2318 https://library.municode.com/ca/arcadia/ordinances/code_of_ordinances?nodeId=670014 [visited on April 13, 2108]; Bellflower Municipal Code 9.40.010 et seq. https://qcode.us/codes/bellflower/ [visited on April 13, 2108]; Orange Municipal Code Chapter 9.10 Ordinance Nom. 03-14 https://library.municode.com/ca/orange/ordinances/code_of_ordinances?nodeId=669862 [visited on April 13, 2108]
