Slam the Gavel welcomes back Connie Reguli to the podcast. Connie was last on Season 2; Episode 98 and Season 3; Episodes 63, 70, 77 and 89. Today we discussed the Family Rights and Responsibility Act that has passed through the Senate in Tennessee. If this bill passes it has the potential to sweep through this nation, stripping parents of their parental rights via teachers, CPS and/or Department of Health.
     Connie has served as an attorney for three decades throughout Tennessee and helped parents fighting for their rights and defending parents against their own government. Connie was retaliated against severely and the whole system turned against her, concocting a fake crime for strongly defending a parent. When attorneys stand up, they get BRUTALIZED. 
     There were CPS bills that came up this year and Connie went in to speak against these bills, all got passed in the House and Senate. Within one of those bills was Reverse The Standard of Proof For Parents: that if a court found that child had been severely abused (terms used loosely), the child could not return to a parent unless the court excluded the parent by clear and convincing evidence  as a perpetrator, or any other person - grandmother or anybody. CONSTITUTIONAL VIOLATION. 
    Within the  bill was that if  the state can put on proof by an expert that the child and the expert can reasonably "predict" that the child is going to suffer from a severe psychological event such as anxiety or depression then that is severe abuse, and the parent can't see the child. You can't predict that they are going to have injury in the future. Termination of a parent's rights should NEVER occur over MONEY.
      We discussed the bill (TN, 2024 SB2749) " Family Rights and Responsibilities Act."  It has already passed through the Senate Committee in TN. WHAT IS A PARENT?  Within  this Bill, is the way the state will define a parent. A parent is a biological, legal or adoptive parent OR an individual who has been granted decision-making authority over the child under state law. Here are parental rights: direct upbringing of the child, moral and religious training, make medical, gender and mental health decisions, to access medical records, educational records etc.. Even a non parent can make decisions for the child. They have defined decision making authority which is GRANTED BY THE STATE. We are damaging OUR rights, not ADDING to them. BAD NEWS. Also, ANY branch, agency or commission or instrumentality of the state government: so the literal reading of this is that a teacher can grant decision-making authority.......This is making our children a commodity. This will get through the House Committee
     Connie encourages people to come and speak out and be heard. They get all this money from the federal government to control you. Please contact rep.jeremy.faison@capitol.tn.gov and express your concerns, even in other states, contact your state representative on this issue, as it has the possibility to sweep through all states.
