No on Prop 1

https://lwvc.org/ballot-measure/prop-1-2024/no-on-prop-1

Although California has a critical need to resource better mental health and addiction services and to address our crisis of homelessness, the League of Women Voters of California opposes Proposition 1 for a number of important reasons. While the additional housing resources offered through Prop 1 are sorely needed, they do not outweigh its flaws.

In answer to the question: Which groups are Pro Prop 1?
PSimmons wrote: “PRospojn Guards, NAMI, Contractors’ groups. . . . a few others Lots of money”

TBarton asked “can you recommend anywhere folks can learn more about the current formula to determine how much MHSA money counties get?”

LengP asks: “If Prop 1 funding will go to fund hospital beds, that seems to be for SMI and not a long term solution for housing which is desperately needed. What is the data around how much impact Prop 1 will make on overall unsheltered homelessness throughout the state?”
