Recently the California legislature has made it very clear that they don't care for the Confederate flag.

I wonder if the California legislature knows that the California state government is allowing the United Daughters of the Confederacy to claim a stretch of highway as the Jefferson Davis Highway even though the California legislature was against it when they attempted to get an official designation.
I think that asking the United Daughters of the Confederacy (UDC) to move their monuments off state property is a logical thing to ask for next. The UDC had their Jefferson Davis highway monuments given back to them in the State of Washington, California would be next. That would get a trend going and the highway could be rolled back to Texas. Jefferson Davis was very explicit and negative in his opinions about Latin Americans.
I will likely write the whole legislature after the Confederate flag banning bill is signed by the governor.
