The “Taxpayer Protection and Government Accountability Act” has qualified for the November 2024 ballot
City of Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass speaks during a press conference to announce a new solar street light pilot program in Van Nuys on Thursday, Feb. 29, 2024. Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass on Thursday, May 16, urged residents not to be misled and to vote “no” on a state ballot measure in November that aims to change state and local government rules for imposing taxes, fees and other charges.
Bass on Thursday morning joined Los Angeles City Council President Paul Krekorian and labor groups in a news conference to warn L.A. voters about negative consequences if the measure is approved. “The mayor and City Council would like it to be easier to raise taxes because they have overspent the city into a huge budget deficit. But L.A. taxpayers already pay too much,” Coupal said in a statement. “This ballot measure restores and reinforces important taxpayer protections that Proposition 13 added to the state constitution.”
Opponents of the “Taxpayer Protection and Government Accountability Act,” say it was introduced as an effort to have voters undo Measure ULA and other measures like it.
