Position Papers
We must defeat Prop 38
Proposition 38 on the November ballot asks voters if the state should give a $4000 "voucher" to each student who attends a non-public school. According to the Legislative Analyst, Proposition 38, the Draper Voucher Initiative, would "result in a major rearrangement of the state system of school finance. This proposition will do nothing to improve our public schools and, in fact, will hurt neighborhood schools by cutting their budgets.
YES ON PROP. 39 FIX CLASSROOMS, FIX THE WAY SCHOOLS SPEND MONEY
Prop.39 will fix the way our schools spend money and fix our schools. If passed, Prop 39 will implement strict provisions that hold administrators directly accountable for the spending of local school bond funds. These accountability requirements will help ensure that every penny of voter-approved school bonds is spent directly on building and repairing classrooms - and not on administration or bureaucracy.
