“Democrat politicians are changing election rules to benefit themselves and their special interest allies.”
SACRAMENTO – Today, Assembly Democrats smashed through the Legislature yet another attack on California taxpayers and Prop. 13.
Assembly Constitutional Amendment 13 is a last minute attempt to curtail voters’ ability to pass taxpayer protection measures like Prop 13, which keeps millions of Californians in their homes and out of poverty.
“Democrats will stop at nothing to drive California’s cost of living even higher. Rather than allowing voters to protect themselves from even higher taxes, Democrat politicians are changing election rules to benefit themselves and their special interest allies,” said Assembly Republican Leader James Gallagher (Yuba City). “The Legislature has done nothing to tamp down on the special interests who have run failed ballot measures over and over that make it harder to do business. It’s clear that ACA 13 is about making it easier to raise taxes and making it difficult for families to live in California.”
It a time where cost of living is higher than ever, our Legislature should be looking out for hardworking Californians, not the special interest groups invested in the unsustainable status quo.
