Prop. 50 - Attacks Independent Citizen Redistricting
Eliminates voter protections against gerrymandering and abolishes citizen-drawn maps — handing Sacramento politicians the power to secretly draw maps behind closed doors.
Sacramento politicians, led by Governor Newsom, have called a costly special election on November 4th to push through Prop 50. This one election alone will cost California taxpayers over $200 million—money we don’t have—while our state faces a $20 billion budget deficit and continues to make cuts to priorities like public safety and emergency response.
What Prop 50 does is simple: it hands the power to draw congressional maps back to the politicians in the State Legislature. Right now, that job belongs to an independent citizens’ commission—a system the voters themselves approved to ensure districts are drawn in a fair, nonpartisan way.
