Gov. Gavin Newsom Signs Bill Reducing Penalties for Sodomy with Minors
[Breitbart] Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) signed a controversial bill into law Friday that will give judges greater discretion to decide whether adults who commit sodomy with minors should be placed on California’s sex offender registry.

The bill, which passed the Democrat-led legislature last week, created a firestorm as proponents said its main purpose was to end discrimination against LGBT adults who have oral and anal sex with minors who claim to be consenting to the sexual activity.

State Sen. Scott Wiener (D), who introduced the legislation, said in a statement on social media the new law would put an end to "blatant discrimination against young LGBT people engaged in consensual activity."

"It’s appalling that in 2020, California continues to discriminate against LGBTQ people, by mandating that LGBTQ young people be placed on the sex offender registry in situations where straight people aren’t required to be placed on the registry," Wiener said.

I don't see in the present situations where any of the underage victims are currently being placed on the offender registry, so why would the senator even say this?

Such ignorance (or duplicity). What is in the water there?
