FACCC is advocating for propositions 15 and 16 so that community college faculty can continue to provide high-quality and accessible education during this public health crisis and beyond. FACCC also asks you to support candidates running for the State Assembly and Senate who are champions of community college faculty.
Proposition 15, also known as “The California Schools and Local Communities Funding Act of 2020,” would amend the California Constitution to tax commercial and industrial properties, except those zoned as commercial agriculture, based on market value. If passed, this measure is estimated to generate between $8 billion and $12.5 billion in revenue per year with much of that funding going to schools and community colleges.
Proposition 16 would repeal Proposition 209, which banned affirmative action in California. Passage of this initiative would allow colleges and public employers to consider race, gender, ethnicity, and nationality in their admittance and hiring practices.
