Brown’s new California budget leaves fate of CSU and UC to November voters - Carly Gillis, Sundial

California voters' stance on Gov. Jerry Brown's tax initiative, acccording to Field Poll. The approval of California’s state budget last week has left the fate of state public universities’ funding in the hands of voters. The state’s 2012-13 budget is contingent upon the passage of Gov. Jerry Brown’s tax initiative, Schools and Local Public Safety Protection Act, this fall. If voters do not approve it, $6 billion in automatic cuts will be made to a variety of state agencies including higher education.
