The music industry celebrates the passing of California's Prop 28 that gives more funding to K-12 arts education.

The Recording Academy — which recruited members in both Los Angeles and San Francisco to provide their signatures to help ensure Proposition 28 got on the ballot — says it recognized the passage of Prop 28 as a victory for California children, as well as for the state’s creative economy.

“As music creators, we at the Recording Academy can’t overstate how valuable music is to our communities and ultimately to the world,” said Recording Academy CEO in a statement. “We’re thrilled California voters have recognized the importance of keeping the music alive in our schools by approving Proposition 28.

The proposition, which draws from the state’s general fund without raising taxes, garnered such strong support from the industry in part because it opens a gateway to California’s creative industries for California’s 6 million public school students. That includes students in disadvantaged communities, with 30% of the funding marked for schools based on their share of low-income students enrolled statewide.
