SR 138: Relative to the Democratic Socialists of America.

This California Senate resolution formally expresses disagreement with the policy platform of the Democratic Socialists of America, arguing that its proposals would undermine economic growth, fiscal sustainability, and public safety. The bill cites historical examples of socialist governments to support its position that expanding government control over the economy threatens individual liberty and private property rights. It further asserts that DSA advocacy for abolishing police and prisons poses risks to community safety and law and order. Finally, the resolution reaffirms the Senate's commitment to addressing housing affordability through increased supply and regulatory streamlining, while promoting effective law enforcement and free enterprise principles.
