There are two propositions that address the right to life and the nature of life. Props 4 & 8 respectively deserve our attention.
Prop 4:
http://ballotpedia.org/wiki/index.php/California_Proposition_4_(2008) is a parental notification law, stating that a minor seeking an abortion needs to notify her parents before she undertakes the procedure. This is common sense, a 16 year old girl can't see an R rated movie without Mom and Dad, she should not be able to make a decision about life or death on her own.
Prop 8:
http://ballotpedia.org/wiki/index.php?title=California_Proposition_8_(2008) would amend the state constitution to define marriage as a union between a man and woman, only. Regularly I would not support such an amendment, because I generally don't think governments need to get involved in such matters. However, when the Supreme Court decided to take an active policy role in this debate, over turning Prop 22 (passed in 2000 by 68%) and the will of the voters, Prop 8 deserves our support.
