Assembly Speaker Fabian Núñez has announced his opposition to Proposition 92, the community college measure on the Feb. 5 ballot. He joins Senate leader Don Perata in opposing the initiative, which would lower community college costs and set aside a chunk of the budget for the post-secondary schools.
He issued a statement: "Proposition 92, while well-intended, doesn't help us achieve our goal of ensuring all students have a chance to go to college. Prop. 92 does nothing to help low-income students with costs at all and the flawed financing approach to Prop. 92 could negatively impact students who seek to continue their education at four-year universities."
Capitol Alert reported about the two teachers unions -- California's largest -- at odds over the measure here.
