Yes on Proposition 3
Extend Critical Funding For Our Schools
Proposition 3 is not a tax increase. Prop 3 renews current tax rates on the wealthiest top 2% with strict accountability to ensure every dollar gets to classrooms.

How Extending Prop 55 Provides Permanent Funding for Schools and Health Care
Help our children thrive
Protect our Schools & Healthcare
Passing this measure will prevent billions in state budget cuts to our local schools and healthcare.
If we don’t pass this measure it will soon mean larger class sizes, laying off teachers, and major cuts to healthcare and Medi-Cal.
This is NOT a new tax and does not raise taxes.
It simply extends the existing tax rates on the wealthiest that have been in place for more than a decade, preventing billions in cuts to public schools and health care.
If we don’t extend the current tax rates, millionaires and billionaires would get a tax cut and pay less in taxes.
California cannot afford to give the wealthiest a tax cut, and they don’t need one.
This simply means voters decide if we should prevent billions in cuts to our local schools and children's health care by continuing an existing law that only affects the very wealthiest earners.
It is NOT a new tax.

Opinion: California’s top earners are thriving. Prop. 3 asks them to keep paying their share.
For nearly 15 years, California has taxed its highest earners at higher rates than everyone else. Those rates have generated roughly $120 billion for schools and other services since 2012. And even with this modest tax, the incomes of California’s wealthiest households have grown dramatically over the same period. Now voters face a question about what happens next: Should those rates continue, or should they expire after 2030?

Like other communities across California, we rely on our public schools to provide stable, high-quality education for every student who walks through that door.
