Supports Prop 31: Prohibit Sale of Flavored Tobacco Products
Voting Yes on Proposition 31 will prohibit the sale of flavored tobacco products.
With flavors like “cotton candy,” “mango slushy,” and “chocolate,” vaping tobacco products have become increasingly popular among youth as young as 4th grade. if approved/supported by the voters (YES votes) this proposition would allow SB 793 to go into effect and make it illegal to sell flavored tobacco products in the state of California: a law that would protect the children and families of California.

Supports Prop 28: Art & Music in Public Schools
Vote Yes on Proposition 28 to support the CA Art and Music K-12 Education Funding Initiative.
For almost thirty-five years, California State PTA has strongly and actively advocated for a full curriculum that includes the arts. Arts education supports all kids. The passage of Proposition 28 is expected to generate more than $900 million a year in dedicated new funding for arts and music education for all public schools across California – without raising taxes. The measure helps address cuts to arts education which have occurred in many California school districts. Studies show that the arts keep students in school, increase the graduation rate, increase academic performance, and add to students’ ability to create, collaborate, think critically, and communicate.
