Proposition 9 would be a big step 8a5IAW30Aa for California...

I .S - All we'd have to look forward to is higher T, -» JV- . electric rates and higher taxes. t|- u. It's rare that a ballot measure comes along that creates so much opposition from so many different people and groups. But Proposition 9 would be such a big step backwairds in so msmy ways it's not surprising it has drawn so many opponents. * - - ' - A '.4 . " " z' * % Some are concerned about the negative impact of Proposition 9 on electricr rates. Others are concerned about the huge taxpayer costs resulting from Proposition 9. And still others wofry about the fact that Proposition 9 threatens funding for environmeritdlly friendly energy sources. .1 The bottom line is, Proposition 9 is a backwards step in many, many ways. , 'i-JaT Between now and the election, look into the facts. When you do, we think you'll join us in voting No on 9.
