We are abiding by the process put together by the state legislature, and so if it\u2019s not followed through on the other side, then we have a problem that needs to be addressed.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>At a hearing before the state\u2019s House Committee on Health on <span data-term=\"goog_1760034409\">March 16<\/span>, one supporter of the bill, Michael Golojuch, Jr., chair of the state\u2019s LGBT Caucus, testified that pregnancy centers are dangerous for women based on his own third-hand account of the sister of one of his friends.<\/p>\n<p>Without providing any substantiating details or even establishing that the pregnancy center had made a mistake of any kind, Golojuch\u2019s testimony was markedly similar to the sweeping claims often made by abortion lobby groups and one \u201cundercover reporter\u201d whose vague allegations\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/the-one-question-no-one-is-asking-in-the-pregnancy-center-witch-hunt\/\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?hl=en&amp;q=http:\/\/the-one-question-no-one-is-asking-in-the-pregnancy-center-witch-hunt&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1499968395825000&amp;usg=AFQjCNFNVxmYIk5HbMUKFcv_-jsrDROF6g\">formed the backbone of California\u2019s 2015 law<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>One lawmaker, Rep.
