Majorities now pass local funding ballot measures to backstop federal cuts to schools and parks. Prop 43 raises that bar to two-thirds. A mere 33% of voters can block what most of your neighbors want. Hardest-hit, of course, are measures that ask corporations and rich property owners to pay their share.
The Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association, whose Prop 13 has drained local budgets for 50 years, wants to squeeze more. But you can stop them. Vote NO on 43 this election.
