Vote Yes on Prop 35 | Protect Access To Health Care

California is facing a health care crisis.
Prop 35 is the solution.

Problem

California’s health care system is in crisis. Hospitals are closing. Emergency rooms are overcrowded. More than 40 hospitals have stopped offering labor and delivery services. Patients wait months to see a doctor or specialist. Care for 15 million children, seniors, disabled and low-income families on Medi-Cal is significantly underfunded. And the state has repeatedly redirected more than $30 billion in health care funding to non-health care purposes.

Solution

Prop 35 will protect and enhance our health care system for all. Prop 35 will secure ongoing revenue by extending an existing tax on health insurance companies — without raising taxes on individuals — and dedicating these funds to protect and expand access to care for all Californians. And it will prevent the state from redirecting these revenues for non-health care purposes.
