Reforming Proposition 13!
The Schools and Communities First coalition is sponsoring the California Schools and Local Communities Funding Act for the November 2020 ballot. In order for this measure to get on the ballot we need to collect 1.4 million signatures! AEA will be asking members to sign petitions at the end of October in support of this. The measure is important because it would close the Prop. 13 loophole that changed the way commercial property owners paid taxes and, therefore, lowered the amount of taxes they were paying. Before 1978 these taxes were funding services such as K-12 schools, community colleges and other community services such as trauma centers, parks and libraries. The California Schools and Local Communities Funding Act would reform current commercial property taxes while maintaining protection for residential property, agricultural land and small businesses. It would eventually restore over $11 billion a year that would go toward funding our schools and programs in our communities. This would include $4.5 million just for schools and help to rectify what Prop. 13 has done to our budgets for the last 40 years. AEA and CTA are supporting this measure on the November 2020 ballot and needs your support, too! For more information please visit: schoolsandcommunitiesfirst.org/ Quick Links
