Submit ReviewIn 2020, California voters rejected a bond measure that sought to borrow $15 billion to modernize and rebuild K-12 facilities and community colleges. Four years later, California voters are being asked to consider a new $10 billion bond measure to repair and renovate existing public schools and community college facilities. In California, there’s no dedicated stream of funding to support the upkeep of the state’s 10,000 public K-12 schools and 115 community college campuses. Instead, leaders often ask voters to approve bonds to pay for repairs, renovations, and new construction. The official title on the ballot: Proposition 2 — Authorizes bonds for public school and community college facilities. You are being asked: can California borrow $10 billion to fund repairs, renovations and construction at public K-12 schools and community colleges? Joining us to discuss is Tony Thurmond, California State Superintendent of Public Instruction and Susan Shelley, Vice President of Communications for the Howard Jarvis Taxpayer Association.
