While I don’t agree with every aspect of Prop 36, I believe that is a balanced and common-sense step forward for California.

Police tape and an Escondido Police car parked in front before police investigators. For years, the Inland Empire has been facing a crisis of rising crime, fueled by fentanyl-related overdoses, organized retail theft, and homelessness–and it’s being felt in communities across the state.While there are a variety of factors influencing these increases, there is a clear cause that we can remedy this November.

It’s clear that these reclassifications have emboldened repeat offenders to commit more crime, and encouraged organized retail theft across the state. We need to discard the pieces of Prop 47 that are making it harder for public safety officials to keep our communities safe. Prop 36 would make a third conviction for property theft a felony charge, broaden the law to include a series of thefts of items with a total value of more than $950, and hold those who “act in concert” accountable. It would also crack down on those who traffic hard drugs to combat the devastating impacts of drug addiction in our communities.
