CSUEU Positions on the May 19, 2009, special election ballot initiatives

From the March 13, 2009, Legislative Committee Report

Prop. 1A: NO
Makes major changes to the way by which the state sets aside money in a "rainy day" account
The Legislative Committee strongly recommends opposing this proposition.

Prop. 1B: NEUTRAL
Amends the state constitution as it relates to Prop. 98
The Legislative Committee recommends a neutral position on this proposition.

Prop. 1C: NO
Makes major changes to 1984 voter initiative to allow the state to borrow $5 billion from future lottery profits.
The Legislative Committee recommends opposing this propostiion. By borrowing against the lottery, CSU would lose what little money it has received. CSU would lose a possible revenue source.

Prop. 1D and 1E: NEUTRAL
Both measures would temporarily redirect funds from social and mental services to achieve budgetary savings.
The Legislative Committee recommends a neutral position on these two propositions. Money set aside for other funds (which currently can't be raided) would be redirected for budgeting purposes.

Prop. 1F: YES
State Officer Salary Increases
The Legislative Committee recommends supporting this proposition. This measure would prevent an increase in the annual salary of state officials when the General Fund is expected to end the year with a deficit.
