The political committee behind Proposition 36 gave $1 million to the California Republican Party in recent weeks .

The California GOP has spent more than $2 million in favor of the measure, according to state campaign finance reports.

Prop. 36 would impose stricter penalties for retail theft and crimes involving fentanyl and repeated shoplifting that are currently misdemeanors.

Proposition 47 aimed to reduce the number of individuals serving prison sentences for low-level, nonviolent theft and drug offenses.

Proposition 36 seeks to reclassify certain misdemeanors back into felonies for these offenses.

It would also give the option to eligible Californians who routinely commit drug crimes to receive substance abuse treatment.
