It has been two years since voters passed Measure X in November 2020, a new county-wide sales tax to support health and human services for our local neighbors and families. How is the Board of Supervisors providing accountability to the public about the impact of the tax monies? What did we learn from this first year of sales tax allocations? What does this mean for the future?

Join us on Thursday, February 16, at 4:00 pm as Shanelle Scales-Preston moderates a discussion to learn about the decisions for the first year’s Measure X allocations -- what was funded, as analyzed by MXCAB, and what are the gaps still remaining. Other topics will include changes to the MXCAB bylaws and any barriers encountered in the first year.
 
The panel will include:  
  • John Gioia, Supervisor, District 1
  • Marianna Moore, Chair, Measure X Community Advisory Board (MXCAB)
  • Kanwarpal Dhaliwal, Co-Director, RYSE
  • Sara Gurdian, Contra Costa Budget Justice Coalition
