Selected quotes

Eliminating the office of equity [...] The legislature finds that government should prioritize funding for safe streets, excellent schools, protection of the most vulnerable, [...] This is only possible when the tax burden placed upon the people is limited to what is necessary to fund essential needs and services [...] If the office of equity has strong public support, it could be reconstituted to operate as a nonprofit organization but will no longer be serviced at taxpayer expense.
