Would have amended Prop. 10 (enacted in 1998) by cutting $1.68 billion over five years from First 5 (state early childhood development programs). In the first year, Prop. 1D would have taken $340 million from First 5 reserve accounts and $268 million in new revenues. Prop. 1D would have continued to reduce the funding available for First 5 programs by approximately $268 million per year until 2014.
