Summary
Urge local academic senates to continue to implement the Senate's many positions in support of affirmative action, and urge local senates to continue to ensure that affirmative action regulations be enforced on their campuses.

Whereas the makers and proponents of Proposition 209 deliberately deceived voters by calling Proposition 209 a "civil rights" initiative, and

Whereas it has been an historical American principle of justice to oppose laws that are antithetical to democratic ideals of equality and justice,

Resolved that the Academic Senate urge local academic senates to continue to implement the Senate's many positions in support of affirmative action, and

Resolved that the Academic Senate urge local senates to continue to ensure that affirmative action regulations be enforced on their campuses.
