PPIC Statewide Survey: Californians and Their Government
Summary
Some findings of the current survey:
- The state water bond and high-speed rail system lack majority backing, but both would gain support if costs were reduced.
- Californians remain supportive of the citizens’ initiative, but they also favor procedural reforms.
- Californians support both a pathway to citizenship for illegal immigrants and tougher border control.
