This year's budget crisis has made it painfully clear – it's time for our leaders to stop offering half measures and political rhetoric and start proposing honest solutions.

Proposition 13 is a ballot measure that was passed by 69% of voters in the California 1978 election. This ballot initiative set a cap on property taxes to no more than 1% of a home’s assessed value. ...
Kathryn Day Absolutely -- and reform for Prop 13 would help to ensure that California students are ready for higher education if it were to address much needed deficits in the schools.

The 2009 California budget crisis was one of the worst in the state's history. While no community has gone untouched by the dysfunction in Sacramento, one group will be hit particularly hard by this year's budget disaster: our UC, Cal State and community college students.

Daveed Kapoor prop 13 is detriment to the future of California. Places all the taxation burden on new buyers. We need equal tax for All. Close the loophole for commercial property owners + residential (do not unfairly burden commercial land owners). has got to be a way to gradually raise the taxes on owners in the loophole.

Yvonne M. Steffen I totally agree with Closing the Loophole and having commercial property owners pay their fair share of property taxes. On the other hand, I fear that Lakoff's Majority Rule Initiative would bankrupt too many private property owners. We would be back where we started years ago when Prop 13 was passed by frightened homeowners.
