Vote the #CaliforniaWay where we thrive together.

Vote YES ON PROP 5 to build more homes that are affordable for working families and NO ON PROP 36 to ensure BALANCED solutions that keep our communities safe.

Prop 5 helps communities create more housing that is affordable for low- and middle-income Californians.
It helps us address community needs like libraries, transportation, water, and parks by allowing local bond measures for affordable housing and public infrastructure to pass with 55% of the vote — the same as school bonds.

Prop 36 would make California less safe by decreasing funding for crime prevention programs that work — all while costing billions in new prison and jail spending.
We know what actually keeps us safe: a balanced approach, which ensures everyone has a place to call home and ensures access to Mental Health and Rehabilitation programs.
