If you or your community has ever been impacted negatively by a voter-initiative, we NEED YOUR SUPPORT.
AB 2646 (Ting) has made its way through the Senate and Assembly and currently awaits Governor Brown’s signature. If he does not hear from enough stakeholders, there is a chance the Governor will veto this bill.
AB 2646 offers us a tool to potentially invalidate laws, including voter initiatives, which change the political structure regarding a matter of importance to minority groups.

It does not fix all the problems with the ballot initiative system in California but it provides much-needed safeguards.
Please send a letter of support by Friday September 12, 2014.
