“The state shall not discriminate against, or grant preferential treatment to, any individual or group on the basis of race, sex, color, ethnicity, or national origin.”

If you want to prevent this from being ratified by voters in November, San Diego Asian Americans for Equality is leading the fundraising campaign for the coalition opposing #ACA5.
