Every week across the state, government bureaucrats and elected officials are
proposing, debating and passing ordinances, rules and legislation that impact
our lives and those of our neighbors. These decisions sometimes don’t have the
direct impact we hoped for or have dire implications on our lives. We need to
constantly remind these decision makers that budgets are more than just math
exercises.

The budget cuts and/or tax increases that are debated monthly fall squarely on
the pocketbooks of those who can afford it the least. California is a special
place to live, work and play primarily because of the wonderful people who call
it home. It’s time we put pressure on our elected officials to pass ordinances,
rules and legislation which improve the quality of life in California, not
complicate it.


COALITION FOR CALIFORNIA:

 * Educating our elected officials and their staff about the impact their
   decisions – and lack of decisions – have on us.

 * Providing a forum for Californian’s to share with others the direct impact
   government decisions at the local, state and federal level have had on their
   lives.

 * Support legislation that improves the quality of life in our state and oppose
   ordinances, rules and legislation that fails to take into account its human
   impact.

It is our hope that together we can continually keep our elected officials aware
that their decisions are just NOT mathematical exercises in budgeting, they are
directly impacting our lives and those of our neighbors.


HIGHER TAXES ON THE HORIZON AFTER CALIFORNIA’S $100 BILLION SURPLUS VANISHES?

Author: Reverend Dwight Williams,  Chairman, California Senior Alliance

California had a $100 billion surplus just a year and a half ago. But after
increasing spending to unsustainable levels and squandering the record-breaking
surplus, California is facing a nearly $60 billion deficit.

What will the solution to the deficit be from Sacramento politicians? Based on
experience, there will undoubtedly be a call for higher taxes.

Fortunately for seniors and Californians living on fixed incomes, hope is on the
horizon with the Taxpayer Protection Act (TPA)—a ballot measure qualified for
the November 2024 Election.

If TPA passes, all new state and local tax increases will also have to receive
voter approval—including those that might be enacted this year. That means any
new taxes to cover the state’s growing deficit must go before voters. After
seeing the state’s huge budget surplus wasted, voters desperately need more
accountability for how politicians spend their money.

With California’s cost of living continuing to soar, the Taxpayer Protection Act
will guard seniors against higher taxes by putting voters in charge—not
politicians.

Californians already pay some of the nation’s highest taxes but get few results
from their money. That’s why TPA is one of the most important ballot measures
since Prop 13.

TPA is a simple measure that does several things:

 * Gives voters the final decision on all higher state and local taxes
 * Closes loopholes special interests have exploited to raise local taxes
 * Creates new transparency and accountability protections
 * Maintains current revenue for essential public services

California’s sky-high cost of living has disproportionately hurt seniors.
Supporting TPA is one way to help ensure Californians living on a fixed income
will not be priced out of our state due to out-of-control tax increases.

This November, vote yes on the Taxpayer Protection Act and put Californians back
in control of taxes.
