Our Mission & Vision

StopProp16.org is a grassroots volunteer group defending Proposition 209 in California. We work closely with many other organizations such as Californians for Equal Rights (CFER), a 501c(4) nonprofit organization registered in California, with a mission to defend Proposition 209 and the principle of equal rights as enshrined in the California Constitution (Section 31 of Article I).

We have organized phone calls and emails to the legislators to express voters’ strong opposition to ACA-5 (now Prop 16).

And now, we will be campaigning against Prop 16, engaging voters in forms of Car Parades, Highway Sign Waving, and Yard Sign Distribution in EVERY part of California.

Please follow our social media accounts to get involved!

Our 2020 Campaign to DEFEAT Proposition 16

Proposition 16 intends to repeal Prop-209 and bring back government preferences on the basis of race and gender in public education, public employment and public contracting.

Not only does Proposition 16 cite misleading evidence to paint America’s most progressive state as a place where minorities and women face systematic inequities, its proponents also incorrectly equate the bill with affirmative action. In essence, Proposition 16 is about government preferences, and government preferences only. Built on partial evidence and shallow prescriptions for an unrealistic utopia, Proposition 16 is divisive and discriminatory. Its actual implementation will put a political band-aid over deeper socioeconomic challenges at best, and violate a series of federal and state laws. We must reject Proposition 16 and safeguard our hard-fought equality for all regardless of race, sex, color, ethnicity or national origin.
