California lawmakers unveil $10 billion bond proposals for climate and schools

California lawmakers have unveiled two bond measures that would go to voters in November. One measure would let the state borrow $10 billion for climate programs, including helping communities recover from wildfires. Another would borrow $10 billion to build or repair public schools. Lawmakers will vote on the measures this week. If passed, they will appear on the ballot for voters to consider. Gov. Gavin Newsom signed California’s budget on Saturday to close an estimated $46.8 billion deficit. The clean water and wildfire bond aims to help communities avoid and recover from blazes, floods, droughts and other catastrophes stemming from climate change.
