<\/a>In November California voters will be asked to consider twelve statewide propositions. Initiatives on the ballot range from amendments to the state\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s constitution to ban same-sex marriage to increasing penalties and spending for prison and policing. You may recall our examination of Proposition 6 or the Runner initiative, and last Friday, a look at Prop 8, the same-sex marriage ban. Ahead of the elections, the Labor Community Strategy Center has started a \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Take the Initiative,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d campaign singling out numerous propositions and one local measure as detrimental to working class people, communities of color, immigrants, youth, and women. The campaign is calling for a “No” vote on six initiatives including Proposition 1A, 4, 6, 8, and 9, and Measure R, local to Los Angeles County. Among their criticisms of the various initiatives is that Measure R is a racist sales tax proposed by the Los Angeles Metropolitan Transportation Authority, Proposition 4 is an infringement on a woman\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s right to choose, and Proposition 6 helps proliferate a police state. All the propositions on this November\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s ballot need more than 50 percent of the vote to become law in California.
