California's Proposition 1, aimed at addressing mental health issues and set for the 3/5 ballot, has garnered significant support from various quarters including Alex Padilla and Governor Gavin Newsom. They advocate for its passage to facilitate the construction of 11,000 mental health treatment beds and to bolster community services and support. The proposition involves a $6.38 billion bond and is seen as a crucial investment in mental health care infrastructure and services, including job training and healthcare, to ensure sustainable solutions for those affected. Critics of previous policies, like Prop 47, argue that Prop 1 represents a necessary shift towards non-partisan, effective public safety and mental health strategies. The proposition is poised for voter approval, reflecting a broad consensus on the need for improved mental health care and public safety measures.

Prop 47 has done tremendous damage to California and San Francisco. I'm a Democrat and I signed this. You should, too. Public safety should be non-partisan. https://t.co/7NWILASbMX
Editorial: Newsom’s Prop. 1 for mental health deserves support https://t.co/TwY34LfHPd
“Unchecked surveillance is not the solution to our city’s challenges,” EFF’s @NaSh12 said at Wednesday’s rally. “If passed, Prop. E would expand secret surveillance while stripping away hard-won safety policies.” More from @DavisVanguard: https://t.co/HzbaJaYGpX
As a prosecutor, I know that putting people in jail for mental illness doesn’t increase public safety. Getting people off our streets and into treatment does. That’s why I’m urging you to vote YES on Governor @GavinNewsom's Prop 1. https://t.co/PIID4RxgC6
