Efforts of activists in San Francisco (CA) to ban circumcision on males under 18, even for religious reasons, are a step closer to getting the issue on the ballot. The San Francisco Chronicle reports that today proponents filed petitions with 12,265 signatures. If at least 7,168 of them are valid, the measure will go before voters.
UPDATE: The full text of the proposal along with other information about it is available online at the San Francisco MGM Bill website.
