Who are the RINO politicians?

---

"Republicans In Name Only" (RINOs)  are a serious problem -- passing bad bills, defeating good bills, deepening "the swamp," and destroying the Republican Party from within. See the RINOs in the U.S. House of Representatives (you won't see this in most "pro-family" voter guides, which tend to support just any "Republican").

In 2025, the most "consistent" RINO Republicans in the California State Assembly, in descending order, were Greg Wallis, Juan Alanis, Laurie Davies, Josh Hoover, Diane Dixon, Heath Flora, and Carl DeMaio. See our 2025 report, "Who are the RINOs?"

And there are other "pro-life" incumbents in the California State Legislature who have voted in favor of abortion-filled budgets. While linking to the "voter guides" of individuals and other organizations, SaveCalifornia.com encourages you to do your own research to confirm your beliefs about a particular candidate or candidates.

Q: Who are the "Republicans In Name Only" (RINOs) on my ballot?

A: We report, you decide. In 2025 in the California State Legislature, 7 “Republicans” in the State Assembly voted for awful Democrat bills promoting abortion (baby-killing), or the “LGBTQIA+” agenda, or both.

What to do about RINOs? Replace them by refusing to support them. Having a Democrat win the seat for a term will allow you to help expose their evil deeds, and importantly, give you motivation to recruit and support a conservative, constitutional, pro-family fighter to win in the next election.

Think about it: Of the current 10 Republicans in the 40-member California State Senate and 20 Republicans in the 80-member California State Assembly, unlike constitutional and often Christian Republican fighters of past decades, none today can be counted on to use their most valuable asset — their voice — to consistently stand and speak to expose the harm of immoral, ungodly Democrat-authored bills. 

It’s a shame, because when you’re in the minority party in the Legislature, your voice matters much more than your votes.

Obviously, with so many Republican legislators supporting anti-family or otherwise harmful bills, and with none of the current crop of California Republican state legislators caring enough to regularly speak to expose immoral Democrat bills, there’s a crying need for concerned citizens and biblical pastors to:

1) Recruit constitutional fighters, who know their main job isn’t money, popularity, or comfort, but steadfastly, lovingly, and truthfully speaking in committee and on the floor to expose the harm of Democrat Party bills

2) Stop accepting crumbs from mute Republicans or from RINOs who vote for harmful Democrat bills.
