Some information from the site: “Race-based data is vital not only in determining and tracking diseases that disproportionately affect various ethnic groups – including whites – but also in uncovering racism, ranging from racial profiling to environmental inequities.”
“A broad statewide coalition of medical associations, civil rights groups, law enforcement agencies and others say Proposition 54 would further deepen the racial divide by eliminating data used to combat disparities.”
Please remember to vote today. And please vote No on Proposition 54.
Brian V. Conroy,
Mayor, City of Hollister
