In Short

California 2.0: One Stop Shopping

The likelihood of a California Constitutional Convention actually taking place in the near future seems to grow daily.

The notion of fixing California’s infamously dysfunctional state government has generated more and more serious political, philosophical and pragmatic discussion about the future governance of this sprawling and diverse nation-state.

The New America Foundation and the Political Reform Program have been at the forefront of this initiative, from co-sponsoring the initial Summit which served as the launching of this public conversation, to producing policy papers and commentary that describe what reform in California might look like and how we get from here to there. Most recently, New America sponsored “California v 2.0: The Roads to Fundamental Reform,” an event which brought together experts in law, finance and political reform to outline a vision for California’s future as well as the nuts and bolts of such an ambitious undertaking.

Step inside the Political Reform Program’s new website, Reform California, dedicated to this particular discussion about California’s future, as a one-stop shopping resource for information about the Constitutional Convention. You’ll find links to radio interviews, video recordings of New America events, and ideas to fix the budget mess and improve the functioning of state government.
