    This act provides for a bond issue of five hundred million dollars ($500,000,000) to provide farm and home aid for California veterans. Fiscal Impact: Costs of about $858 million over 25 years (average cost of about $34 million per year); costs paid by participating veterans.

    Proposition 33 Legislature. Participation In Public Employees’ Retirement System
    3,791,715 / 39.0% Yes votes ...... 5,941,814 / 61.0% No votes
    Allows legislative members to participate in the Public Employees’ Retirement System plans in which a majority of state employees may participate.

    5,903,907 / 60.0% Yes votes ...... 3,933,949 / 40.0% No votes
    Limits campaign contributions and loans to state candidates and political parties. Provides voluntary spending limits; expands public disclosure requirements and increases penalties.

    5,442,138 / 55.1% Yes votes ...... 4,428,702 / 44.9% No votes
    Amends Constitution eliminating existing restrictions on state, local contracting with private entities for engineering, architectural services; contracts awarded by competitive selection; bidding permitted, not required.

Actual impact will depend on how the state uses the contracting flexibility under the proposition.

    6,199,992 / 60.8% Yes votes ...... 3,991,153 / 39.2% No votes
    Requires probation and drug treatment, not incarceration, for possession, use, transportation of controlled substances and similar parole violations, except sale or manufacture. Authorizes dismissal of charges after completion of treatment. Fiscal Impact: Net annual savings of $100 million to $150 million to the state and about $40 million to local governments. Potential avoidance of one-time capital outlay costs to the state of $450 million to $550 million.

    Proposition 37 Fees. Vote Requirements. Taxes
    4,579,981 / 48.0% Yes votes ...... 4,963,684 / 52.0% No votes

Fiscal Impact: Near-term state costs from zero to $1.1 billion annually. Long-term state impact from $2 billion in annual costs to $3 billion in annual savings, depending on how many public school students shift to private schools.

    Proposition 39 School Facilities. 55% Local Vote. Bonds, Taxes Accountability Requirements.
    5,402,822 / 53.3% Yes votes ...... 4,733,205 / 46.7% No votes
    Authorizes bonds for repair, construction or replacement of school facilities, classrooms, if approved by 55% local vote. Fiscal Impact: Increased bond debt for many school districts.
