California Democrats Work To Legalize Discrimination After Voters Rejected It Twice

Less Discrimination, More Success​

Democrats predicted that Prop 209 would have detrimental effects on the minorities in the state. They thought that without racial preference in college admissions, minority students’ enrollment at the University of California (UC) system would drop significantly.

The Democrats’ fearmongering didn’t come true. Research by Charles L. Geshekter, an emeritus professor of history at California State University-Chico, shows that since Prop 209’s passage, minority students’ enrollment in the UC system has increased, and their graduation rates have also improved. Geshekter credited the ban on racial preferences in college admissions with leading to a redistribution of minority students among UC campuses. More of them achieved better academic outcomes when they attended a college that “offered an apparently better match for their academic backgrounds and preparation.”

Even the Los Angeles Times had to admit that UC’s student body is more racially diversetoday. For example, UC’s 2020 freshman class was composed of 36 percent Hispanics, 35 percent Asians, 5 percent blacks, and 21 percent whites. Additionally, “about 44% of admitted students were low-income, while 45% were the first in their families to attend a four-year university.”

California is deeply in debt and looking to institute a "rich people" tax. We moved from there because it is crazy left now. It is like a third-world country in Los Angeles, and San Francisco and Oakland, once thriving cities.
