From the Pacific Sun:
No - This initiative to fund education and early childhood programs is a well-meaning proposal at completely the wrong time. We're all for its intent—a 12-year tax hike based on a sliding scale, bringing in $10 billion a year, perhaps more, for schools, childcare and preschools. But, as history teaches us, similar tax measures competing for "yes" votes on a single ballot tend to drag each other to defeat—and Proposition 30 is the "big ticket" tax-hike-to-fund-education proposition on the ballot. At press time, Prop. 38 was polling at a dismal 34 percent approval; Prop. 30 was at a passable 52 percent. If 38 has no chance of passing, we urge education-minded voters to mark the "no" box here and save your socially conscious generosity for Prop. 30.
CA Democratic Party: No
CA Green Party: No - While the Green Party believes the state of California needs comprehensive tax reform and increased education funding, the Green Party opposes Prop 38 for several reasons.
