Who else is against it

More than two million teachers, firefighters, police officers, nurses, school employees, and workers in the manufacturing, retail, construction, health care and other industries are against Prop 32.

Financial impact of the proposition? • The payroll-deductions go towards schools and would improve health and safety provisions, and working wages. Instead the money would go towards the wealthy people’s businesses such as tobacco, pharmaceutical, and real estate giants.

PRO Arguments •



Wednesday, October 24, 2012

Prop. 32 cuts the money ties between special interests and politicians to the full extent constitutionally allowed. It bans contributions from corporations and unions to politicians. It prohibits contributions from government contractors. It stops payroll withholding for politics, making all contributions voluntary. There are “NO LOOPHOLES, NO EXCEPTIONS” http://voterguide.sos.ca.gov/propositions/32/

Cons Argument



Wednesday, October 24, 2012

Prop 32 exempts business Super PACs and thousands of big businesses from its provisions. It applies restrictions on working people and their unions. It’s unfair, unbalanced, and won’t take money out of politics. The money would still be “voluntarily” given to the politicians.

Possible Unintended Consequences

• If the proposition gets passed, money may and will be donated to politicians.

• Education would receive less money as well as workers gaining benefits, getting better working conditions, and earning better wages.

• The money would instead go towards the businesses of the wealthy.
