Proponents of Proposition 1 contend that the measure will bring much needed housing relief for California citizens. They claim the measure will target those most in need: veterans, homeless families, people with disabilities, and domestic violence victims. They claim the measure has broad support from both social welfare groups and the business community. |
Opponents of Proposition 1 claim that the proponents of the measure need to fully justify it by addressing details of its full cost, confirming that the funds will be used for the uses specified, and providing justification of the uses.
