City Council members voted 4-1 — with only Jessica Alexander backing her proposal — not to bring the resolution back for a vote.
In Orange County, a similar resolution was proposed last month in San Clemente by City Council Member Steve Knoblock, but wasAlexander told her colleagues that “as a council, we are called to protect the public. What greater love can we show than to fight for the sanctity of life of the most helpless and innocent, which are our unborn neighbors? By creating this resolution, we are taking a stand for life and holding it up sacred.
In the emotional discussion that followed, other council members expressed their views, with several on the dais — including Mayor Matt Rahn and Council Member Maryann Edwards — saying they also share pro-life beliefs. But they were concerned with the way the resolution was presentedRahn said the proposal was unclear, and wanted clarity in the future on how Temecula brings forth future city resolutions and proclamations.
Edwards said she already believes Temecula is a “sanctuary city, without using it in the legal sense, that will cause us to get sued by the state of California. And I don’t want to go there.” City Clerk Randi Johl said the city received 122 emails, with 84% opposed to Alexander’s proposed resolution, and 22% supporting it.
