28 No on 226 & 227
Marchers protest two initiatives on the ballot in California -- Proposition 226, which would have hampered unions from collecting money from members for use in political campaigns, and Proposition 227, which prohibited bilingual education. Grassroots opponents of the two propositions sought to link them together, as two parts of an attack on working people and immigrants.
