The Truth About Prop 15

Special interests are pushing Prop 15 on the November 2020 statewide ballot that will destroy Prop 13’s property tax protections and raise property taxes by up to $11.5 billion a year. Prop 15 has too many flaws and will increase the cost of living for all Californians.

 

FLAW #1 HURTS FARMERS

Most food items will face higher property taxes not just once, but several times, as they travel from the farm to processing, packaging, distribution, and the grocery store ultimately driving up the cost of living for all Californians!

FLAW #4 HURTS LOCAL GOVERNMENT BUDGETS

Prop 15 will be a nightmare for local governments to implement. It will create more than a billion dollars in new administrative expenses over three years for county assessors, which must be repaid before any tax revenue goes towards the measure’s stated goals.

FLAW #5 LACKS ACCOUNTABILITY AND TRANSPARENCY

Taxpayers will receive almost no accountability protections in exchange for $11.5 billion in higher taxes. The new taxes will go to state and local governments to spend however the politicians want – just like they are doing with the lottery.
