[Occupymendocino] Prop. 49

[Mark Safron]

2016 is already off to a monumental start. 

This morning, the California Supreme Court affirmed the right of California voters to be heard. The court just ruled that voters are allowed to vote on Proposition 49, the Overturn Citizens United Act! 

Prop. 49 <http://act-ca.commoncause.org/site/R?i=ShFx_Du26q3Syp4m_iREEA> gives Californians the opportunity to instruct Congress to take action to stop the unlimited flood of spending in electoral campaigns by supporting a constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United.

In 2014's November Election, California voters would have had this same opportunity. However, the state court ordered the proposition to be temporarily removed from the ballot because of a question about whether voter instructions are allowed.  

But today, the California Supreme Court stood with We the People!
