lawmakers and families impacted by the fentanyl epidemic gathered at the state capitol to announce a new effort. it says poor prop 36 a measure that if passed would increase penalties for certain drug crimes and deaths. kron 4 stephanie lin spoke with one of the supporters, san jose mayor matt mahan. >>so do is start us off your provide us with some bullet points. mayor, how would prov 36 change existing law and why do you think it's important that voters passed this in november? >>absolutely. prop 36 is a reform of prop 47, which the voters passed about a decade ago and what we've seen through experience is that prop 47 has some gaps were seen. untreated addiction drive a homelessness a retail theft crisis and maybe most importantly, overdose crisis. and so what popped 36 does is escalate penalties for repeat retail theft and drug crimes
12:03 am
such as public drug use. and it gives judges ew tools to compel people into treatment will save lives. will reduce retail theft and it will help in the effort to end the era of encampments. so what have you seen in the city of san jose? but is leading you to throw your support behind this measure. >>well, look what we've seen since the passage of prop 47 is that while it did some meaningful work get it passed the era mass incarceration and also created loopholes. we have seen participation and drug courts across the state decline while we've seen homelessness and retail thefts increase. so there's clearly a lack of accountability for getting treatment. the compassionate answer here is to compel people to engage in treatment and ensure that there are consequences for committing crime. no one wants to go back to the era mass incarceration. but the way that we also protect our communities is by compelling people to treatment. we should enter the era of mass treatment.
12:04 am
>>so of course, there are critics to this measure, including governor gavin newsom who've said that increasing jail or prison time for offenders is expensive. it could lead to what you just mentioned there. mass incarceration, potentially more racial disparities in the criminal justice system. what are your what's what's your response to that? >>when we first talk about costs, you know, it more costly to leave. thousands of people living and dying on our streets. it's more costly to have thousands of people overdosing from addiction and it's more costly to allow retail theft to continue unchecked. we all hate. we all pay the theft tax when retailers have to walk up goods and and raise prices because of how much is being stolen. so there are a lot of hidden costs that were all buried by failing to get people into treatment on the racial disparities. i would just note the facts, which are that it is our racial, a
12:05 am
racial minorities that over represented in the homeless population in the overdose deaths. it is in san jose. half of our small businesses. our immigrant. and so once again, it is our communities of color that are disproportionately bearing the burden retail theft of overdose deaths and stood with us today in demanding this reform of prop. 47. >>of course, you mentioned the homeless population, you know, but that's a big issue that you are you committed to tackling in the city of san jose. how do you see prop 36 addressing the issue of homelessness? >>well, this is another tool, our primary strategy to ending homelessness is to build safe and dignified shelter. it's to continue to invest in affordable housing and give people the option to come indoors. we also know from experience as we do outreach in our encampments, that there's portion of our unhoused population suffering from severe addiction and mental health issues. and we need tools to compel people to
12:06 am
come indoors to engage with treatment. if someone's addiction is leading them to repeatedly commit crime, including retail theft, public drug use. that's making our parks a place where people feel safe. judges need the discretion to build a compelled out person to engage with treatment or face jail time. >>we can our last 30 seconds here, mayor, if you could possibly name a measure to that, you've introduced in san jose to combat the kind retail and drug that that prop 36, which addressed. >>well, what we've been doing is rebuilding our police department. we have put an emphasis recruiting hiring. we've added foot patrols in our downtown. we more recently added bike patrols and we are continuing to to play that role of law enforcement. but if you ask our officers on the front lines, they'll tell you they're sick and tired of arresting the same people over and over again, particularly when person's underlying issue is untreated addiction. and
12:07 am
that's really what this is about. this is about getting into the air of mass treatment, helping people and making our community safer. >>alright mayor matt mahan, thank you so much for your time this afternoon. thanks for having me.
