Don't Let Legislators Lock in the Worst of Times
As California’s cash runs out and the state teeters on the brink of bankruptcy, Republican legislators and the Governor continue to push for budget ideas that will destroy California’s vital public services:
- A hard budget cap that will force deep budget cuts every year to education, healthcare, and other services
- The budget cap would set THIS YEAR OF CRISIS as our baseline, guaranteeing that we would never recover
- More cuts to homecare, services for people with disabilities, and other vital services
Take Action now to speak out against the destruction of public services in California at a time when we need them more than ever.
In addition, they are using the economic crisis as an excuse to give their corporate donors the chance to take even more away from workers.
- Eliminating meal breaks
- Ending the 8 hour work day for some workers
Now is not the time to weaken protections for workers, and now, more than ever, with unemployment approaching 10% in California, we need to fund the vital public services that more and more Californians need.
