Dear city council members, I'm a concerned resident. My name is Ashley Owen. I will vote no on proposition16. Proposition16 gives the government power to discriminate its own residents based on race and gender. This is clearly illegal and we urge our elected officials to take a stand against it. Supporters of proposition16 state that it may benefit people of color in education and government contracting. Yet, proposition16 merely eliminates the California constitution that prohibits discrimination based on race or gender. The majority of voters of our city are against proposition16. We must defend our constitution. Thank you for your attention.

Attention all Californians. Your ballots will come out around October 5, 2020. The ballots are due on November 3, 2020. On the ballot is a very tricky proposition. Proposition 16 is being sold to the public as helping minority groups. That is not what proposition 16 does. Proposition 16 is to eliminate California's constitutional protection against discrimination on the basis of race or gender, without providing any substitute language. In short, Proposition 16 is to legalize discrimination, and we must vote it down. Please vote no on proposition 16.
