Rep. Pete Aguilar Celebrates Passage of Prop 50

callen by callen November 5, 2025November 5, 2025

California voters have passed Proposition 50, sending a clear message to Donald Trump and Republicans that they will not stand for attempts to steal the 2026 midterm elections.

UDW District 3 Chair Desmond Prescott stresses, “Proposed cuts by the Trump administration will impact millions of Californians who rely on Medicaid to fund the IHSS program. Together, we’re going to stand up to those in Congress who attacked those who give care and those who receive care. We must hold them all accountable.”
