YES on Measure 50 -- PASSED
Proposition 50 (SCA 17 of 2013-2014) on the June ballot.
This measure will allow, but not require, legislators to forfeit salary, benefits, and privileges of office when suspended. Legislative accountability and combating corruption are both important parts of restoring public trust in government.
It is currently possible to suspend legislators with a two-thirds vote, but not to suspend their salary or benefits. This measure would allow, but not require, the Legislature to suspend a member and deem the salary and benefits forfeited.
Such actions are highly unusual: The three senators suspended in 2014 were the first suspended in the 164 years of the Legislature. Over the years, five senators have been expelled, and several senators accused of corruption resigned in 1985.
The Assembly has never suspended or expelled a member.

AUGUST 2015
RESOLUTION ON THE POTENTIAL
NUCLEAR ARMS DEAL WITH IRAN
The Palisades Dem Club board had a spirited and detailed discussion on the Iran nuclear deal
at our August monthly meeting.
Our board members have been following the complex aspects of this important foreign policy decision in addition to the statements by experts on the pros and cons of the negotiations. Last evening we voted overwhelmingly in favor of the Iran nuclear deal after much discussion.
It is our general feeling that although there may be risks, the deterrents to Iran’s nuclear program laid out in the deal are very vigorous, global in nature, and critical to avoiding the alternative--more sanctions and possible military intervention. We feel this deal is in the best interest of both the U.S. and Israel in trying to prevent Iran from making a nuclear bomb.

City of Los Angeles Ballot Measures

YES on MEASURE 2:
City of Los Angeles L.A. Unified School District Election Date Alignment Charter Amendment: Would make three changes to the laws governing L.A. Unified School District Board of Education elections to make them occur in even-numbered years so that they coincide with city, federal, and state election dates by 2020.
One of the chief purposes of these measures is to increase voter turnout.

YES on Prop C
Proposition C Limits to Campaign Spending and Rights of Corporations -- City of Los Angeles
(Resolution - Majority Approval Required)
Shall the voters adopt a resolution that there should be limits on political campaign spending and that corporations should not have the constitutional rights of human beings and instruct Los Angeles elected officials and area legislative representatives to promote that policy through amendments to the United States Constitution?
Existing laws regulate the funding of political campaigns, and include limits on contributions to candidates and disclosure requirements in campaign advertisements. Past laws prohibited corporations from funding campaign material independently of candidates. However, due in part to US Supreme Court decisions in the Citizens United v FEC and Buckley v Valeo cases, limits on corporate independent expenditures were ruled unconstitutional.
A YES vote means that you want the people of the city to support an amendment to the US Constitution that would limit the rights of corporations so that spending money on campaigns is not constitutionally protected speech, and that ensures all citizens can have their views heard.
PPDC supports this measure because it believes corporations do not have the same rights as people are afforded under the Constitution and that the Citizens United decision should be overturned.
---------------------
YES on Prop D
Proposition D Medical Marijuana Regulation and Taxation -- City of Los Angeles
(Ordinance - Majority Approval Required)
Shall an ordinance regulating businesses where marijuana is cultivated, processed, distributed, delivered or given away to qualified patients or primary caregivers (MMBs) by:
(1) prohibiting MMBs but providing limited immunity for MMBs that operated since September 2007, timely registered with the City, generally have not ceased operations, pay City taxes, pass annual background checks, are separated from residential zones, maintain certain distances from schools, parks, child care facilities, other designated places and other MMBs, and meet other requirements and operational standards;
(2) exempting dwelling units used by three or fewer patients/caregivers to cultivate medical marijuana on-site for their patients or themselves, and other exemptions; and
(3) increasing the MMB tax to $60 per each $1,000 of gross receipts; be adopted?
There has been a proliferation of medical marijuana establishments citywide. Regulations governing their number, location, and operation may protect residents, businesses, and patients from potential adverse impacts.
A YES vote means you want to regulate "medical marijuana businesses" by allowing the operation of no more than 135 of these businesses that have operated since 2007, are registered with the city, and have met all operational requirements. You also want to increase the city tax on these businesses from $50 to $60 for each $1,000 of gross receipts.
PPDC supports this proposition because we believe it is a reasonable compromise in controlling the proliferation of unregulated medical marijuana businesses while allowing for patient access and increased tax revenue.

FURTHER HISTORICAL INFO ON PREVIOUS ELECTIONS
Here are PPDC's previous endorsments for the Los Angeles city primary election on March 5, 2013. You can click the link below for an easily printable page if you're voting in person, or you can look for, cut out, and bring to the polls our endorsement ads in the Palisadian-Post.
Far fewer people vote in primaries than in Presidential elections, so your participation has even greater impact. Vote!
YES on Proposition 30: Temporary Taxes to Fund Education. Guaranteed Local Public Safety Funding. Initiative Constitutional Amendment.
Governor Brown promised not to raise taxes without the consent of the people. He is now asking for your consent to increase taxes on incomes over $250,000 for seven years and sales tax by ¼ percent for four years.
NO on Proposition 31: State Budget. State and Local Government. Initiative Constitutional Amendment and Statute.
Restricts the budgeting process to “pay as you go” formula through an unnecessarily strict and inflexible process. Too much authority given to the governor to cut programs during a “fiscal crisis” and power to local governments to ignore environmental regulations.
NO on Proposition 32: Prohibits Political Contributions by Payroll Reduction. Prohibitions on Contributions to Candidates. Initiative Statute.
The Special Exemptions Act: It’s not what it seems. Prop. 32 promises evenhanded political reform, but is designed by billionaire businessmen and Super PACs to allow them to make unlimited political contributions, while barring unions from making any political contributions. Prop. 32 is Citizens United on steroids.
NO on Proposition 33: Changes Law to Allow Auto Insurance Companies to Set Prices Based on a Driver’s History of Insurance Coverage.
Mercury Insurance measure to change loyalty discounts. Prop. 33 will lead to significant surcharges on new customers and those who have had a lapse in coverage. A repeated attempt by Mercury Insurance to increase rates.
YES on Proposition 34: Death Penalty Repeal. Initiative Statute. Replaces California’s death penalty with life imprisonment without the possibility of parole.
California has 725 people on death row, but has not executed anyone since 2006. Eliminating death row and years of appeal will save millions of dollars.
YES on Proposition 35: Human Trafficking. Penalties. Sex Offender Registration. Initiative Statute.
Increases prison sentences and fines for human trafficking convictions. Requires convicted human traffickers to register as sex offenders and once registered, to disclose Internet activities and identities.
YES on Proposition 36: Three Strikes Law. Sentencing for Repeat Felony Offenders. Initiative Statute.
Reforms wasteful three-strikes sentencing measure. It preserves the escalating schedule of penalties for career criminals while imposing rationality and consistence on the threshold for a 25-to-life sentence.
YES on Proposition 37: Genetically Engineered Foods. Mandatory Labeling. Initiative Statute.
Requires labeling of food sold to consumers made from plants or animals with genetic material changed in specific ways. Prohibits marketing such food, or other processed food, as “natural.” Exempts certified organic foods.
NO on Proposition 38: Tax for Education and Early Childhood Programs. Initiative Statute.
Proposition 38 competes with Proposition 30. Prop. 38 was written and financed by a single individual, Molly Munger. Raises taxes on everyone earning over $7,317. Funds raised go to education.
YES on Proposition 39: Tax Treatment for Multistate Businesses. Clean Energy Efficiency Funding. Initiative Statute.
Requires multistate businesses to pay income taxes based on percentage of their sales in California. Dedicates revenue for five years to clean/efficient energy projects.
YES on Proposition 40: Redistricting. State Senate Districts. Referendum.
A YES vote means that you do not support a Republican attempt to invalidate newly redistricted State Senate maps.
Los Angeles County Measures
NO on Measure A. Appointment of County Assessor -- County of Los Angeles (Advisory Vote Only)
Do you support seeking to change the California Constitution and the Los Angeles County Charter to make the position of Los Angeles County Assessor an appointed position instead of an elected position?
We would rather focus on a better-informed public when voting for the assessor position than having this individual appointed by elected officials.
YES on Measure B. Safer Sex In the Adult Film Industry Act -- County of Los Angeles (Ordinance - Majority Approval Required)
Shall an ordinance be adopted requiring producers of adult films to obtain a County public health permit, to require adult film performers to use condoms while engaged in sex acts, to provide proof of blood-borne-pathogen training course, to post permit and notices to performers, and making violations of the ordinance subject to civil fines and criminal charges?
We believe that this is a necessary regulatory step towards improving the public health of those in the porn industry.
YES on Measure J. Accelerating Traffic Relief, Job Creation -- County of Los Angeles (Continuation of Voter-Approved Sales Tax Increase - Majority Approval Required)
To advance Los Angeles County's traffic relief, economic growth/job creation, by accelerating construction of light rail/subway/airport connections within five years, not twenty; funding countywide freeway traffic flow/safety/bridge improvements, pothole repair; keeping senior/student/disabled fares low; Shall Los Angeles County's voter-approved one-half-cent traffic relief. Sales tax continues, without tax rate increase, for another 30 years or until voters decide to end it, with audits/keeping funds local?
This is a continuation of the voter-approved measure that is vital to Los Angeles County’s long-term transportation future.
