Arguments

Pro

Prop. 69 guarantees existing transportation taxes can ONLY be used for transportation improvement projects. It prevents the legislature from redirecting these funds for non-transportation purposes. Prop. 69 protects taxpayers. Does NOT raise taxes. Supported by League of Women Voters California, California Chamber of Commerce, California NAACP, Congress of California Seniors.

Con

Sacramento’s broken promises have led to a rundown, outdated, and congested transportation system throughout California. Proposition 69 protects transportation money that will not fix or build any new roads. Proposition 69 fails to protect more than $1 Billion in gas tax revenues. Vote NO on Proposition 69.
