Californians United for a Responsible Budget (CURB)

Brian Kaneda, Los Angeles Coordinator

“A budget is a statement about our values. California is #1 in both poverty and prison spending. This year we’ll spend 16.5 billion dollars of taxpayer dollars on corrections. Does that sound like a responsible budget to you?”

Californians United for a Responsible Budget (CURB) works in coalition with 70+ organizations to reduce the number of people in prisons and jails and shift public spending from corrections and policing to human services.
