PLEASE TAKE IMMEDIATE ACTION!

Please contact your members of the State Legislature and tell them you oppose a budget agreement that includes tax increases of any kind. Click this link to contact them. 

WHEN:

Now! A budget with tax increases could be taken up as early as next week, and our taxpayer allies in the Legislature are taking severe abuse from the tax and spend lobby. They need your help and support to stand firm.

WHY:

California has the highest income tax, sales tax and gas tax in the United States, and the highest corporation tax in the Western United States. Its 9.3% unemployment rate is the highest it has been in nearly 20 years. General Fund spending has increased 36 percent in five years, dramatically outpacing revenues. Last year, California experienced a net domestic out-migration of 150,000 people, many of whom took their businesses with them. Where did many of them go?

Nevada (no corporate or income tax) Oregon (no sales tax) and Arizona (top income tax bracket is half of California’s). Enough is enough!

PLEASE ACT NOW!
