Stop the Prop 36 Prison Spending Scam! #NoOnProp36
STOP Prop 36 this November!
This week, CURB is sharing key resources and assets from organizations fighting back against Prop 36. We’re joining forces with advocates to expose the dangers of this initiative and provide tools to take action.
Visit StopPrisonScam.org to access resources from the Committee to Protect Public Safety, Californians for Safety and Justice, and ACLU Northern California, including a “No on 36” toolkit. Click here for a link of resources and ways to take action shared by our partners. Join in the fight and take action now.
Prop 36 will cost taxpayers at least $26 billion over the next decade in new prison spending—the largest increase in California history. CURB is here to demand a responsible budget, and this is a PRISON SPENDING SCAM that MUST be exposed. We will NOT go back to the era of tough on crime and mass incarceration.
The average per-unit cost of affordable housing in our state is around $300,000. With $26 billion, California could fund the construction of over 86,000 units of affordable housing instead.
Governor Newsom wisely opposes Prop 36, warning that it will NOT address the public safety concerns it claims to. This is the wrong solution to issues like retail theft and drug use. Prop 36 will tear families apart and perpetuate systemic inequality. We need investment in communities, not more incarceration.
