Proposition 1, titled Bonds for Mental Health Treatment Facilities, was a California ballot proposition and state bondmeasure that was voted on in the 2024 primary election on March 5. It will be certified by April 12, 2024.[1] If the ballot measure passes and is certified, the proposition will provide additional behavioral health services and issue up to $6.4 billion in bonds to fund housing for veterans and homeless individuals. It will also move about $140 million of annual existing tax revenue for mental health care and addiction care to the state from the counties. Supporters of the proposition argued that more mental health and housing initiatives were necessary in the state.[2] Supporters included Governor Gavin Newsom,[3] the California Democratic Party,[4] State Senator Susan Eggman,[5] the California Chamber of Commerce,[6] the California Federation of Labor[7] and the California Teachers Association.[8] Opponents of the proposition argued on the basis of higher taxes and that it could cut county mental health programs.[2] Opponents included State Senator Brian Jones, State Assembly Member Diane Dixon,[9] the Peace and Freedom Party,[10] California College Republicans[11] and the League of Women Voters of California.[12] As of March 11th the current tabulation of the vote showed a near statistical tie with hundreds of thousands of votes left to count.[13]
