Prop 25, the On-Time Budget Act Fixes, Doesn’t Create, Problems
To paraphrase Mark Twain, the report of the death of the right to referenda have been greatly exaggerated.
The notion that California could become one of 47 states that has a majority vote budget appears to have opponents in something of a froth. Charges of majority vote taxes and loss of the right of referenda have flown – even in the face of irrefutable evidence to the contrary.
It’s fear mongering at its worst.
