Proposition 3 sustains California schools. Losing the high-income tax would be devastating
Proposition 3 seeks to make an income tax on California’s highest earners permanent to sustain school funding. Without this measure, California’s schools could face billions of dollars in cuts, impacting programs like free lunches and increasing class sizes. The measure is written to guarantee that revenue benefits students by being directly audited and allocated to local schools and community colleges.
