Vote to protect our Constitution. Vote to protect equity. Vote NO on Question 3.
Vote No on the anti-equity amendment

ALT Vote No on the anti-equity amendment

We've seen this before. Politicians are using misleading ballot question to pass harmful policies rather than actually improving our lives. This time, legislators are pushing a racist anti-equity amendment to permanently change our Constitution and make it hard for the government to ensure fair access and opportunities. Vote No.
