州众议员关于 SCA-5 的回信
热度 6 ||
虽然家里没有小孩需要上加州大学，但事关华人利益，还是去信表达反对立场。这是选区州议员的回信。
Thank you for contacting my office regarding your concern for Senate Constitutional Amendment 5. Yesterday, Senator Ed Hernández withdrew SCA 5 from further consideration. As introduced in the California State Senate, SCA 5 proposed to place an amendment to the California Constitution on a future California ballot.
The constitutional amendment envisioned by SCA 5 would have impacted the operation of public education. Currently, the state is prohibited from discriminating against or granting preference to certain groups of individuals. SCA 5 would have eliminated this prohibition as it relates to the operation of public education.
Since my first engagement with the public on this issue on February 21st, I have engaged myself in a deep study of the issues raised by SCA 5. I find these issues to be very complex and worthy of a thorough, thoughtful, and measured debate and discussion. California needs to have a conversation about how to help all of our children achieve success.
Concurrently with the announcement of the withdrawal of SCA 5, the leadership of the California State Legislature announced the formation of a task force to study the issues that were raised by SCA 5.
I was not going to be able to support SCA 5 this year as it was presented, so I applaud both the decision of Senator Hernández and the formation of the task force.
Since February 21st, I have received hundreds of communications about this measure. I appreciate the intensity of the concerns that has been expressed about SCA 5.
We must understand how best to advance educational equality and opportunity. I hope that the task force will provide the forum for this important statewide conversation. I appreciate you contacting me regarding this important issue. I hope that you will continue to engage with my office on issues of concern for the 24th Assembly District and the state at large.
Sincerely,
Rich Gordon
Assemblyman, 24th District

- 16区以前有共和党当选过，这次正好把共和党选上去，让民主党失去三分之二多数应该是不错的预防措施。
