ENDORSEMENT: Vote Yes on Proposition 28

By |October 4th, 2022|

Politicians – usually conservative ones – love to talk tough on education issues, saying things like, “We need to get back to the basics – reading, writing, and math!” This continues to be true, and is perhaps growing worse, the longer the country remains so bitterly divided and is in constant cultural warfare. We already know the Republican Party is retreating from any support of truthful science, and we’re fairly terrified of exactly what kind of science will be taught going forward in solidly red/conservative states. But that’s not what’s on the ballot with Proposition 28, which is an effort to increase arts and music education programs that were on the chopping block well before debates over climate change or COVID-19.

I spoke at length which each candidate to get a sense of their qualifications for city council and their views on the issues dominating our Westside discourse.
