PROP 54 "PROHIBITION AGAINST CLASSIFYING BY RACE, STATE & OTHER PUBLIC ENTITIES
INITIATIVE": IMPACTS ON HEALTH, LAW ENFORCEMENT, EDUCATION, & HUMAN RIGHTS OF
CALIFORNIANS - A Joint hearing held before the Senate and Assembly Judiciary
Committees held in compliance with the Elections Code. The supporters of Prop
54 state that their goal with this initiative is to create a "color-blind
society", where these characteristics are irrelevant. The opponents say that in
fact, that goal will never be achieved if the state is not allowed to classify
individuals according to those categories when providing public education,
entering into public contracts, or employing workers. The goal of this hearing
is to have a constructive airing of the issues raised by Prop 54. (Stock #1224-
