General (4) Jennifer L. Hall From:Ashley Owen < Sent:Tuesday, September 22, 2020 10:25 AM To:Public Comment Subject:City council meeting - general comments Dear city council members, I'm a concerned resident. My name is Ashley Owen. I will vote no on proposition16. Proposition16 gives the government power to discriminate its own residents based on race and gender. This is clearly illegal and we urge our elected officials to take a stand against it. Supporters of proposition16 state that it may benefit people of color in education and government contracting. Yet, proposition16 merely eliminates the California constitution that prohibits discrimination based on race or gender. The majority of voters of our city are against proposition16. We must defend our constitution. Thank you for your attention. 1
