ACT NOW
SAVE YOUR HOME – EVEN IF YOU RENT!
THINK YOU’LL INHERIT YOUR FAMILY HOME? THINK AGAIN.
Prop 19 has made property taxes unaffordable. Families are being forced to sell their home, farm, or business upon the death of a parent. Tenants are being evicted when their landlords must sell.
“We now pay higher property taxes than anyone on my Dad's cul-de-sac.”
“Everyone in our building had to move.” “
If Mom dies in memory care, taxes will skyrocket because she moved out
of our house – even if I live there. I'm losing Mom and my home
Newly proposed Senate Constitutional Amendment 4 (SCA 4) offers an opportunity to repeal Prop 19 and save homes! GREAT NEWS! It’s been referred to Senate Committees! SCA 4 does NOT change the good parts of Prop 19, still lets fire victims, disabled and seniors 55+ transfer their property tax rate.
• 1 call + 1 email = reaching two full Senate committees. Tell them you support SCA 4. Your votes will be counted and presented to the two committees.
Governance and Finance Committee
• Call your two state Representatives: https://findyourrep.legislature.ca.gov/
As a constituent in your district, I am asking you to co-sponsor and vote YES on Senate Constitutional Amendment 4 (SCA 4). Prop 19 has made property taxes unaffordable. Families are being forced to sell their home, farm, or business upon a parent’s death. Tenants are being evicted when their landlords must sell.
<< Optional: For greater impact tell your own story of why SCA-4 is important to you and Californians. >>
It is very important that SCA 4 gets on the March 2024 ballot as it will restore the important taxpayer protection that was removed by the narrow passage of Prop 19 in 2020. Can I count on your support?
Respectfully,
Your Signature
PROP 19. CALIFORNIANS WERE SOLD A BILL OF GOODS.
Prop 19 was deceptive. Narrowly passing in the middle of the pandemic, it promised to help fire victims and seniors move, but hidden in the fine print was the nightmare that’s now forcing sales of homes.
“
“Prop 19 wasn’t clear – I wasn’t sure how to vote.”
.”
I had to close the preschool.”
“After I die, my disabled son will be on the street.” “We literally lost the family farm.”
