| | Campaign to Defeat 209 |
 | | Proposition 209, which will appear on the 1996 California ballot, will ban equal opportunity programs designed to remedy race and gender discrimination in public employment, education and contracting. |
 | | Proposition 209 eliminates all equal opportunity efforts such as affirmative action, outreach, recruitment, mentoring, and tutoring programs in public employment, education and contracting. |
 | | Other programs which Proposition 209 eliminates include women's centers on college campuses, outreach and mentoring programs for minority students, magnet schools designed to desegregate school districts, and efforts to recruit women in non-traditional jobs like policing and skilled trades. |
