Dear Voters and Taxpayers:
Proposition HH is NOT what proponents say it is. It is a huge tax increase. It takes your tax refunds already owed back to you but is disguised as a small amount of property tax relief to local governments. It raises State taxes by billions of dollars.
You should be outraged by how it came to get on the ballot. A great thing about the General Assembly is that it allows for views to be shared, citizens to testify in committee, and for important changes to be thoroughly debated. That’s not what happened. The legislation did not go through a proper Committee of Reference, like the Finance Committees in both chambers, as it should have. Also, it was introduced almost at the end of session. Further, reasonable debate was cut off in both chambers so that minority voices were silenced!
Legislators had a duty to follow the right process. Instead, they disrespected the rules and damaged democracy. What they did instead was sneaky and dictatorial. Don’t let them get away with violating your rights! Insist on a new session that conforms to an honest and open process!
PLEASE VOTE “NO” ON PROPOSITION HH this November
Send the legislature back to work for a real solution.
