DESCRIPTION:Join the ACLU of Northern California for a Yes on Prop 6 phone bank on 
 Tuesday, October 15 from 5 - 8pm.  \n\nSign up here to join us: 
 https://action.aclunc.org/a/prop6-phonebank\n\nProposition 6 would close a 
 loophole in the current California Constitution, which prohibits slavery 
 and involuntary servitude, except as punishment for a crime. \n\nPrisons 
 and private companies make millions in profit by forcing incarcerated 
 people to work dangerous jobs even if they need to be in rehabilitation 
 programs like victim impact, anger management, or drug treatment. \n\nProp 
 6 prioritizes rehabilitation and increase opportunities for incarcerated 
 people to work on themselves, which leads to safer communities for us 
 all.\n\nJoin our phone bank action! Help us reach out to voters to educate 
 them about the historic Proposition. Our outreach efforts, particularly 
 calling California voters, is going to make all the difference this 
 November.\n\nWhy do we ask about your identity? Our team is committed to 
 diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging. You'll notice some of the 
 optional questions below ask about identities. By providing us with this 
 information, we can ensure our programs reach those that identify as 
 directly impacted, BIPOC, and/or LGBTQIA. \n\n\nWHY YES on PROP 
 6?\n\nhttps://voteyesprop6.com/about/\n\n--Vote yes on Proposition 6 to 
 reduce crime, victimization, spending on California prisons, and enhance 
 public safety.\n\n--NO OPPOSITION: No groups nor persons have come out 
 against Prop 6 \n\n--Voters in Alabama, Tennessee, Oregon, and Vermont 
 voted yes to similar legislation. California must catch up.\n\n--Prop 6 
 Makes our communities safer and reduces wasteful taxpayer 
 spending.\n\nProposition 6 enhances public safety and reduces recidivism by 
 prioritizing rehabilitation, leading to significant cost savings for 
 taxpayers. California taxpayers pay $134,000 per year to incarcerate one 
 person. Evidence shows that the more people are rehabilitated, the less 
 likely to suffer from homelessness and re-offend, avoiding costs for 
 re-incarceration. \n\nThese savings can be reallocated to community 
 programs, investments in mental health programs, education, and other 
 public services, improving the well-being of all Californians while saving 
 taxpayers money.\n\nFor PRO/SUPPORT endorsements, go here:
