Sometimes deciding how to vote on one or more of these issues is a challenge.<\/p>\n<p>Join us this Sunday, either in person or online, as we discuss the pros and cons of each of these propositions. Some are fairly straightforward and understandable, while others are less so. We can learn more about the propositions using online information regarding what is available from relatively neutral sources, as well as from their proponents.<\/p>\n<p>Together, we&#8217;ll discuss and learn more about these propositions and perhaps find out more about who is supporting them, and what is available online about them.<\/p>\n<p>The meeting will be presented and facilitated by Carl Angotti and Alex Havasy, both longtime voters and members of the Humanist Community in Silicon Valley. (Notice that we&#8217;re starting at 10:30 AM.)\n<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"vimeo-player\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/1020826760?h=2d01e30109\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/1020826760\">10\/13\/2024 California Propositions<\/a> from <a href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/hcsv\">Humanist Community-SiliconValley<\/a> on <a href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\">Vimeo<\/a>.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p>Attend in Person:<br>Join fellow Humanists to consider the propositions in <b>Milpitas Library<\/b> Group Study Room B, 160 N Main St, Milpitas, CA 95035.<br>Often after our meeting, we find a nearby inexpensive eatery for a luncheon.<br>If you can join us in person, please email vp@humanists.org to help us make sure we have room for you.
