California Democrats Gut Amendment to Make Buying Minors for Sex a Felony

If you need the backstory here, read this post from yesterday, which lays the facts out in all their sordid inglory.

 A coalition of some Democrats, Republicans and law enforcement officials have been attempting to undo some of the harm to children embedded in a number of terrible California laws.  Perhaps most notably, they're rightly targeting a 2024 "compromise" -- made at the insistence of "progressives" -- that re-established the purchase of children for sex as a felony, but only after a carve-out exempting sexual solicitation of 16- and 17-year-old minors was added to the legislative language.  Buying those children for sex, which is often tied to all sorts of other heinous sexual exploitation and crimes like trafficking, remained a mere misdemeanor under state law.

 This week's efforts to eliminate that appalling loophole was defeated yesterday, overwhelmingly, by Sacramento Democrats, who gutted and watered down the amendment's language as to make it worthless and unenforceable.   ...

In a state determined to destroy itself, this makes perfect sense.  Creating a generation of monsters sold into sex slavery (which is still slavery) will create the total chaos they are trying to achieve in Sacramento.  My question is, will the legislature try again, and will they have reparations to those kids built into the bill?
