Comparing Props 36 and 50: One Helps CA, The Other Helps Newsom

By Jeff Vaughn

California voters passed Prop 36 addressing the state’s crime problem and increasing public safety. Gov. Gavin Newsom refuses to fund it at an estimated cost of $250M. Prop 50 addresses no state issues, but a perceived national issue and Newsom approved the $250M cost. See what his priorities are. One protects California and was democratically voted on by the people. The other takes away the state’s independent, citizen-led redistricting commission, and uses money from the people for a non-state issue.

Prop 36 helps California. Prop 50 helps Gavin Newsom.
