ARGUMENT Against
Proposition 65
VOTE NO on 65.
VOTE YES on 1A.
Our coalition of local governments submitted
Prop. 65 to the voters in order to protect local revenues
that are used to provide essential services,
including fire protection, law enforcement, paramedic
response, and emergency medical care. For
years, state legislators have taken local government
funds used to provide these essential local services.
HOWEVER, in the time since Prop. 65 was submitted,
a new and better measure-Prop. 1A-has
been placed on the ballot to prevent state raids on
local government funding. Prop. 1A is supported
by Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, Democrats
and Republicans, local government and public
safety leaders because it is a better, more flexible
approach to protect funding for vital local
services. Please look in the ballot pamphlet at the
official arguments and the diverse groups supporting
Prop. 1A.
VOTE NO on 65.
VOTE YES on 1A.
