On FlashReport’s main news aggregation page in the morning, you’ll see articles that are referencing a new survey by the Public Policy Institute of California.
As President of the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association my official response to this survey is as follows…
“The poll shows Californians do not trust their Representatives with decisions on taxes. They do not want higher taxes imposed by the Governor and the Legislature. The real reason they want to vote is so they can turn down Jerry Brown’s menu of tax increases. The Governor ought to listen to the people, go back to the drawing board and present budget solutions that don’t hurt working families rather than wasting the people’s time and tax dollars on a special election whose negative outcome is predictable.”
