Proposition CC, on the November ballot, will ask Coloradans to permanently give up our tax refunds. State budget experts have estimated that over the next three years that could amount to $1.3 billion tax increase.

How Proposition CC Works

Why #TABOR Matters On September 2
The ballot language of Prop CC begins by claiming “Without increasing taxes…”
If it passes, that means you lose your TABOR tax refund permanently.
That is an increase in taxes.

The Bell Policy Center is another group behind repealing TABOR.
They consistently support tax increases and more government regulations.

Proposition CC on the Nov 5, 2019 ballot asks voters if government can always keep any extra tax dollars paid in excess of the TABOR limits on the state budget. They suggest the money will be divided equally among K-12, higher education and transportation. But the ballot language contains no guarantees as to how money will be spent. Hence, Prop CC is nothing more than a slush fund for politicians to fund their special interests.

Referendum C hurt TABOR; Prop CC will do more harm
They lied to us in 2005, and they are doubling down on this lie in 2019. Colorado voters were sold a bill of goods with Referendum C in 2005, and it is of the utmost importance that we aren’t fooled again with Proposition CC in 2019.
Proponents of Referendum C originally claimed that their measure was “temporary.” The measure was supposed to offer a five-year reprieve from the constitutional limitations created by the Taxpayer’s Bill of Rights (TABOR), allowing some fiscal flexibility for Colorado lawmakers to invest heavily in education and transportation.
Or so they claimed.

• In 2005, voters passed Referendum C to provide more than $2 billion each year for roads.
• In 2009, the legislature passed FASTER fees, which provides $250 million each year through higher car registration fees.
• In 2017, the legislature “fixed” the Hospital Provider Fee, which freed up $600 million for roads and education.
• This all means we spend almost $3 billion more per year since 2005, yet our roads are still in terrible condition.
Who is accountable?

Beware! The Colorado Fiscal Institute has launched a statewide petition drive for the November 2020 ballot to completely repeal your Taxpayer’s Bill of Rights. The effort is being disguised using TABOR’s designation in statute: Article X, Section 20 of the Colorado State Constitution.
