Homelessness, Drug Addiction, and Theft Reduction Initiative Qualifies for the Ballot!
The facts about the Homelessness, Drug Addiction, and Theft Reduction Act (Initiative 23-0017A1)
Whether it’s rampant retail theft causing neighborhood store closures or the growing epidemic of fentanyl overdoses, Californians can’t afford half-measures to address these pressing issues.
The Homelessness, Drug Addiction, and Theft Reduction Act provides balanced solutions to ensure our communities are safe.
We turned in more than 900,000 voter signatures to qualify for the 2024 November General Election. This bi-partisan measure provides common sense, targeted reforms to Proposition 47 that legislative proposals alone are unable to deliver.
We learned last week that the initiative qualified for the ballot for the November election.
Be warned though Democratic legislators are already up to their usual schemes, they have passed a package of “crime bills” that will not bring the changes to how homelessness, drug addiction, or theft is currently being handled, or more accurately, not being handled in the state. As a part of that package, they have added an amendment that says if the Voters pass the Homelessness, Drug Addiction, and Theft Reduction Act, then the package that they just passed will be void. Don’t be fooled.
Because the voters passed Prop 47 putting us in this current situation, ONLY THE VOTERS can change Prop 47. Anything the legislature passes will be successfully challenged by progressive groups as being unconstitutional. That will leave us right where we are at this point: rampant and blazing retail theft, the ever-growing epidemic of fentanyl overdoses, and ever-increasing homelessness.
