OUR POLICY GOALS
KEY ACTIONS:
We use the initiative process to enact policies we wish to put into law or change.
EQUAL CUSTODY INITIATIVE
The destruction of the Black Family has been an objective since our introduction into the United States. From separation during slavery, government action through social services, and removing fathers from the home, black children have been victimized. Our goal is to insure the stability of black children, by mandating the equal custody initiative.

Anti-Black Hate Crime Initiative
Although African Americans comprise less than ten percent of California’s population, we remain the most frequently targeted group for hate crimes in the state. This proposed initiative seeks to strengthen penalties for perpetrators and expand the legal definition of hate crimes directed against Black Americans.

NO VICTIM,
NO CRiME INITIATIVE
The No Victim, No Crime Initiative is a proposed California ballot measure aimed at decriminalizing all victimless crimes within the state. The core principle of the initiative is simple: if there is no direct, identifiable victim, there should be no criminal penalty.
This measure seeks to reduce overcriminalization, ease the burden on the justice system, and affirm individual liberty and bodily autonomy, while redirecting public resources toward actual public safety needs.
Under this initiative, acts that do not result in harm to another person or their property—and where no complainant exists—will no longer be treated as criminal offenses under California state law.

End Prior Felony Impact Initiative
Despite completing their sentences, many formerly incarcerated individuals continue to face exclusion from jobs and career opportunities. This ongoing punishment violates the fundamental principle that a person cannot be penalized multiple times for the same offense. The U.S. Constitution protects against double jeopardy and guarantees equal protection under the law. Denying individuals the right to rebuild their lives after serving their time is not only unjust — it is unconstitutional. This practice must end.

Eminent Domain Reparations Initiative
This initiative will require the government to properly repair the dignity of victims of Eminent Domain by making a formal apology, and compensating victims, or the victims direct descendants .
The DESI Initiative
The DESI Initiative is a proposed ballot measure to designate African Americans—specifically those who are direct descendants of formerly enslaved people in the United States—as a protected class with a distinct legal status within the State of California.
African Americans occupy a unique position in the American legal and historical framework. Unlike any other group, their citizenship required federal intervention through both the Emancipation Proclamation issued by President Abraham Lincoln and the ratification of the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. These measures were not simply acts of law, but acts of recognition—defining and legitimizing the status of a people who had been systematically excluded from the rights and protections of American life.
DESI seeks to formally recognize this distinct lineage and its ongoing social, economic, and political impacts. Through this classification, the initiative aims to authorize targeted state programs, protections, and reparative policies that address the historical harms and continued disadvantages uniquely experienced by this community.
