The CA Legislature tried to strike these words from the state constitution in 2020 (put there by Prop 209 in 1996). The voters smacked them down when 57.23% said NO—despite the YES campaign outspending the NO team by more than 14 to 1. Now they’re trying again—calling it a “clarification” instead of an effort to gut the provision’s application to public education. Don’t believe them. If approved by the voters, this would be a major change. The aim is to pave the way for the recommendations of California’s Task Force on Reparations. The Task Force wants to make college free to African Americans no matter how well off their parents are and to get school districts to fund individual schools based on the race of the students who attend.

@johnkonrad These post incident interviews where the former journalist is allowed to say what they really think are so enlightening as to how mediocre our elites* really are.
*I hate that word the way it is commonly used as there is nothing "elite" about them.
@Cernovich Every kid I have working for me is strongly encouraged to max out their 401k. I take the time to explain how it's essentially free money. I know every excuse they will make and have the counters.
If I had started right out college instead of waiting until I was pushing 30...
@doggintrump Do you think it's one guy count's the whole state? You know, with a bigger population, you could afford more tabulators and to hire more people?
It's designed to make fraud difficult to detect.
@MorosKostas@stephen_richer Any system designed in such a way that makes it easier to commit fraud has fraud. Will it be findable, no, of course not, it was designed that way.
@toobaffled Can someone please apologize to Sarah Palin? If she hadn't brought it up (and likely if Hillary had won in 16 regardless) we'd have it here.
@CynicalPublius Those who put Reagan above Trump are going on foreign policy alone. That Trump is essentially cleaning up Reagan's immigration policy is indicative of who's on top.
Reagan was the man for the times, no doubt.
Trump is who we need now.
@A_Sober_Drunk It also destroyed the spare parts chain as the cars couldn't be parted out. Now, even if you have one of those rare beaters, maintaining it cost more because you can't go the junkyard and refurbished parts cost more.
