Proposition 13 - America's Second Great Tax Revolt My First Book

 

In 1978, the citizens of California took the historic step of voting for Proposition 13, thus reducing property taxes by 57%. Already known as a trend setting state, California's tax revolt was no different, as similar tax revisions quickly spread across the United States of America. In California, state and local governments struggled to find a way to manage the loss in revenue. On many occasions budget cuts were the solution. Library budgets were frequently the target of those cuts.

"I think 100%, it was a war of choice. Donald Trump chose this. We didn't have to be the ones to do this,"  (Guarria) said. "I believe that's not our fight."
