While CLUE-LA does not endorse political parties or candidates running for any office, we can and do take positions on issues and ballot propositions we feel are important to the work we do with working families, disadvantaged Angelenos, immigrants, and people of faith in Los Angeles.

To that end, we endorsed votes on some ballot propositions. The measures, our endorsements, and the results are posted below:

Proposition 30: YES
Temporary tax for schools and public services.
PASSED

Proposition 32: NO
Removes paycheck deduction by unions; muzzling working people’s political action.

Proposition 34: YES
