Proposition 54 does have exemptions.
Author Ward Connerly is quoted in the San Jose Mercury on the exemptions. In part, he says, “Our intention was, and the language that has been crafted and reviewed by lawyers, is that all of the things the opponents are saying they’re worried about are already exempted…”
