Join the Coalition to Save Prop 13!

Thank you for helping to collect more than 1.3 million signatures to put
The Local Taxpayer Protection Act on the ballot.

The Local Taxpayer Protection Act caps real estate transfer taxes to protect property owners’ equity and restores the two-thirds vote requirement for local dedicated taxes — giving Californians more control over our skyrocketing cost of living.

Prop 13 is Under Attack!

Californians already suffer from the highest income, state sales and gas taxes in the country.

Now, powerful special interests are exploiting court-created loopholes to charge homeowners — and all property owners — a sales tax when they sell their home or business.

Real estate transfer taxes are especially destructive:

  • Stalling local real estate sales

  • Reducing property tax revenue

  • Depressing property values

  • Stealing money from schools

  • Stopping new housing construction

  • Hurting emergency services

Collectively, these taxes extract more than $1.3 billion annually from property owners. And the special interests won’t stop there. They are exploring ways to increase local income, sales and parcel taxes using the same loopholes.

These higher taxes will only make it even more expensive to live in California.

The Local Taxpayer Protection Act would cap new real estate transfer taxes and restore the right to vote on all local dedicated taxes with a two-third vote requirement so voters can better control their cost of living.
