Statewide Ballot Propositions
Official CPLC Ballot Recommendations for all California Voters
Proposition 1 — Borrows $11.25 Billion for Housing Projects
These funds are typically poorly monitored, and historically, have been documented as frequently pilfered and 'redirected'.
Proposition 2 — Guts State Spending Limit and Cancels Tax Rebates
Eliminates the state's constitutional spending limits and eliminates taxpayer refund protections when the state experiences budget surpluses.
Proposition 3 — Income Tax Increase
Imposes higher state income tax burdens on California workers and families already struggling under unprecedented inflation and cost of living.
Proposition 4 — Gives Tax Dollars to Political Campaigns
Forces public tax dollars to subsidize candidate campaigns and political committees instead of essential civic infrastructure and services.
Proposition 5 — Weakens the Right to Recall Elected Officials
Weakens voters' constitutional check against corrupt, unresponsive, or lawless elected officials by making citizens' recall petitions dramatically harder.
Proposition 37 — Borrows $25 Billion for Housing Projects
Massive $25 billion taxpayer-funded debt obligation subject to the same documented waste, bureaucratic diversion, and lack of oversight as Prop 1.
Proposition 38 — Public-Private Partnership Bonds for Immunology Research
The "Fauci Gov't funding of unethical and unsupervised medical experimentation Act." The money essentially goes to the bill's author—a medical researcher who will determine his own ethics. Aborted baby body parts are frequently used by such medical labs.
Proposition 39 — CA Voter ID Requirement
Restores public trust and confidence in California elections by implementing common-sense, secure government-issued photo identification for voters.
Proposition 40 — "Billionaire" Tax That Becomes an "Everybody" Tax
Misleadingly labeled as a targeted wealth tax; broad fiscal definitions ensure higher costs pass directly onto small business owners and everyday consumers.
Proposition 41 — Audit Special Taxes
Mandates independent, comprehensive audits of local and statewide special tax assessments to ensure revenues are spent honestly as promised.
Proposition 42 — Stop Savings Tax
Prohibits Sacramento from creating predatory taxes on personal savings accounts, emergency family funds, and hard-earned retirement assets.
Proposition 43 — Save Prop 13 & Protect Taxpayers
Protects California homeowners and businesses from perpetual property tax hikes by strengthening local taxpayer protections and reinforcing historic Prop 13.
Proposition 44 — Costly Mandates on Community Health Clinics
Imposes expensive, duplicative state regulatory burdens and operational mandates that jeopardize local independent community clinics and patient care.
Proposition 45 — Reduce Housing Costs by Reducing Red Tape
Brings affordability back to housing construction by curtailing excessive state permitting delays, streamlining bureaucratic hurdles, and curbing fee inflation.
