In California, if you’re gay and you want to do business with its public utilities, you will need to get ‘certified’ as being gay. You can’t just be any gay. You must be ‘certified.’<\/p>\n

You know, like a used car.\u00a0<\/p>\n

According to Chris Rufo, writing in the New York Post:<\/div>\n

California Democrats have embraced a new form of favoritism: contracts for businesses that are state-certified as being owned by LGBTQ+ individuals.<\/p>\n

The scheme operates through the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC), which regulates privately owned utility companies.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n

And you’ll need to get gay-certified not just by saying so, but by\u00a0particular gay certifiers, Rufo continues:<\/p>\n

Paperwork. Supplier Clearinghouse, a group that certifies firms for the CPUC program, features a of qualifications linked on its website. Applicants can secure certification by providing a letter from an \u201cLGBT organization\u201d attesting to their sexual preferences; proof that a newspaper identified them as \u201cLGBT\u201d; or three letters from \u201cpersonal contacts\u201d written \u201con company letterhead\u201d attesting to their homosexual orientation. Corporate officials who \u201cfalsely represent\u201d their business as gay face up to a year in county jail.<\/p>\n

Supplier Clearinghouse also gay-certification letters from the National LGBTQ+ & Allied Chamber of Commerce. The chamber has its own of accepted documents, including human resources complaints or police records claiming LGBT discrimination. As NGLCC states on its website, \u201cCertification is a journey, not a destination.\u201don<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Human resources complaints? Like because someone ‘solicits’ the guy in the next toilet stall by putting his privates\u00a0through a peephole\u00a0who isn’t gay?<\/p>\n

What a qualification.<\/p>\n

The bottom line though, is don’t just be a gay. Be a certified<\/em> gay. Be a luxury gay, subject to an 80-point inspection.<\/p>\n
