Stop the Taxpayer Deception Act and Protect Local Services
Real estate developers, corporate landlords, and big business are once again working to dupe California voters into letting them off the hook from paying their fair share of taxes.

From budget cuts to skyrocketing rents, “tough on crime” policies to homelessness, the climate crisis to the culture wars, and anti-tax measures to threats to our democracy, our communities are under attack. By avoiding their fair share of taxes, they undermine the programs and services that keep us safe, like public safety, healthcare, and environmental protections.
