California just voted to pass AB 2624, aka “The Stop Nick Shirley Act.” This bill puts journalists at civil risk for investigating fraud and makes it harder to expose fraud in “immigration support services,” including NGOs, nonprofits, and health care facilities that receive hundreds of millions from the state of California each year.
This bill makes it criminal to expose fake hospices in Los Angeles or the Somali “learing center” in Minnesota if they then claim “reasonable fear” and the business owner gives a written demand not to post the video. [One fraudulent Somali group called their leaning center, the learing center, thus my reference]

California passed the Stop Nick Shirley Act, but it’s not yet signed into law.
Nick Shirley is a citizen journalist exposing widespread fraud – mostly by foreigners – that is bankrupting the country. The act will help conceal corruption by preventing citizen journalists from exposing it. California is run by criminals pretending to be Democratic.
They don’t want citizen journalists they can’t control. If a citizen journalist shows up at a fake hospice immigrant center with a camera, for example, the pro-crime government will levy fines starting at $4,000.
The Bontas
The bill was authored by Bolshie Assemblywoman Mia Bonta, Attorney General Rob Bonta’s wife. He claims he has been investigating the fraud all along, but he hasn’t been, not in earnest. Lately, he has stepped up the arrests of a few but doesn’t address the core problem. He’s not a serious lawman. Bonta is serious about having all illegal immigrants’ backs.
His wife is responsible for a law that protects criminality, which he won’t prosecute in earnest.
One-third of the nation’s hospice providers are in Los Angeles. Does anyone think that is legitimate?
