CHCA's NEW Proposed Legislation: Safeguarding Civil Liberties

California Health Coalition Advocacy has proposed legislation that would bring a balance between public health and the rights of the individual to make their own choices about their health.


  • Any action taken by the health department to ascertain the nature of a disease, and to prevent its spread, could only be carried out with the prior, free and informed consent of the person concerned or their guardian, based on adequate information.
  • During emergencies and infectious disease outbreaks, the government or its designees would not be able to take away a person’s fundamental right to make health decisions for themselves or for their dependents. They would not be able to take away a person’s ability to receive benefits and/or fully participate in necessary and important services such as education, daycare, employment, and religion based on a person choosing to decline preventive, diagnostic and therapeutic medical treatment or intervention.

CHCA Statement on Handling of COVID-19 Pandemic

California Health Coalition Advocacy recognizes and appreciates the state’s swift response to the COVID-19 pandemic, which prepared hospitals for an influx of infected patients. As with any natural disaster, much of the initial response takes place simultaneously as data is being analyzed. Now that data shows that initial modeling was wrong and that less restrictive means would have had similar outcomes with low risk to Californians, it is time to take actions to correct draconian orders that went too far and adapt mitigation measures based on the new data.

LEGISLATION

California Health Coalition Advocacy lobbies for legislation that impacts the air we breathe, the food we consume, the water we drink and touch, and the wellness opportunities we have. During the last two legislative sessions, CHCA supported bills that would impact the health of Californians, including topics such as: birthing options, pesticides and harmful chemicals in schools and playgrounds, flame retardants, and professional cosmetic product labeling.

AIR

California residents deserve clean air. Although the state has enacted air pollution control programs that primarily relate to vehicles, it has not adequately addressed other forms of air pollution. Consumers are bombarded with unwanted effects of agricultural spraying, pest abatement chemicals, geoengineering, and electric and magnetic field radiation.


California Health Coalition Advocacy

FOOD

CHCA agrees with Hippocrates, who said, "Let food be thy medicine." Consumers in California want to have access to foods that improve health. But, many of our foods are contaminated with harmful chemicals. CHCA supports legislation that would grant consumers greater awareness and options when it comes to foods that heal or harm.

WATER

Water is the foundation of life. What is in it and what is not in it are vitally important to health. All over the world and right here in California, our drinking water and the water we swim and bathe in are polluted at a health damaging level. CHCA supports efforts to ensure cleaner water for all.


California Health Coalition Advocacy

WELL-BEING

Californians have vast, but limited opportunities for health and well-being. CHCA will broaden consumer options for the avoidance and reversal of disease, birthing choices, alternatives to prescription drugs, informed consent to treatment and products as well as increased access to specialized health practitioners.
