3 Education Bills You Need to Take Action On
Hello Neighbors,
We need your help ! Three education-related measures are quickly moving through the California Legislature, so we encourage concerned residents to contact Assembly member Blanca Rubio and ask her to oppose these proposals, TODAY!
ACA 7 – Weakens Proposition 209 Protections
ACA 7 would ask voters to repeal key provisions of Proposition 209, allowing public institutions to once again consider race, sex, ethnicity, and national origin in decision-making.
AB 1665 – Mandated Mental Health Training for Coaches
AB 1665 would require additional state-mandated mental health training for school athletic coaches, creating new requirements and costs for schools and volunteer programs.
AB 2117 – Removes Voter Choice for State Superintendent
AB 2117 would transfer the selection of California's State Superintendent of Public Instruction from voters to the Governor, reducing direct voter accountability over the state's top education official.
Important Dates
• ACA 7 is scheduled to be heard in the Senate Committee on Constitutional Amendments THISTuesday, June 9
• AB 1665 is scheduled to be heard in the Senate Education Committee THIS WEDNESDAY, June 10
