Proposition 6 aims to amend California's constitution to ban involuntary servitude in prisons, changing the current allowance for forced labor as a punishment for crime.
Supporters argue that California must join states like Oregon and Colorado in abolishing all forms of slavery, reflecting advancing social justice values.
Currently, while slavery is prohibited, involuntary servitude can be enforced against inmates as punishment, a contradiction many advocates believe must be rectified.
A 'yes' vote on Prop. 6 signifies a commitment to ending forced labor in prisons, positioning California alongside progressive states in this human rights issue.
