CITY COUNCIL CANDIDATES

Thousand Oaks: Jeffrey Schwartz (LPVC Member)

STATE MEASURES

NO on 2: Authorizes $10 Billion bond (tax) for schools. Includes a clause that could negatively affect competitive bids.

NO on 4: Authorizes $10 Billion bond (tax) for water, fire and wildlife but most will go to climate change projects.  

Measure 3: Deletes phrase that "marriage is between a man and a woman" from state constitution. We are making no recommendation either way. 

NO on 5: Makes it easier for bonds (taxes) to pass by reducing the vote necessary to approve them from two-thirds to 55%. VERY IMPORTANT ISSUE. If this passes, it could lead to the loss of Prop 13 which protects homeowners from major house tax increases. 

NO on 6: Removes requirement that prisoners work. Allows voluntary inmate workers to request pay hikes. 

NO on 32: Raises minimum wage (again) to $18 effective January 1, 2025. 

NO on 33: Allows local governments to enact rent controls.

YES on 34: Requires revenues from the federal discount prescription drug program be spent on patient care. Ends scheme of using funds for political use. 

Measure 35: Makes temporary tax on health care companies permanent with revenues to be used for Medi-Cal. (We are making no recommendation either way.)

YES on 36: Reverses parts of Prop 47. Re-establishes felony charges for certain thefts under $950. 

COUNTY MEASURES

NO on H: Continues a property tax of $59 per parcel for schools. This is one of three other parcel taxes for schools already on our property tax bill.
