The November 2026 ballot will include Prop. 3, The California Children’s Education and Health Care Protection Act of 2026. Passing Prop. 3 is crucial to protect existing funding — almost $15 billion annually — for our schools and students.

Prop. 3 keeps the wealthiest Californians paying their share so our public schools get the funding our students deserve. Without it, our public schools face a devastating 15% budget cut; 1 in 6 educators would face layoffs. For more information visit: https://www.cta.org/educator/posts/yes-on-prop3
