Join our Weekly Zoom Meetings Thursdays at 7PM.
Fall Guest Speaker Line-up
Bring your questions and join our Guest Speakers for a lively discussion on how to Fix Prop 19.
It's important that you sign up for updates with the Howard Jarvis Tax Association
What is the most important thing you can do right now to Fix Prop 19?
Sign-up online with the Howard Jarvis Tax Association (HJTA) for updates and to automatically get your petition the next time we fight to get this on the ballot.
Howard Jarvis was key to getting Prop 13 passed in 1978. Now the HJTA is the primary sponsor in the fight to reinstate Prop 58.
The HJTA needs to know enough interest exists for a third try. So they are asking volunteers like us to get one million people registered for Repeal the Death Tax updates.
We need to show our support so the HJTA knows we can win next time.
IF YOU WANT TO FIX PROP 19 SIGN UP NOW!
********
Know why the HJTA calls it a "Death Tax"? When grieving a parental loss many get new Prop 19 tax letters notifying them of much higher property taxes... including back taxes!
VOLUNTEER TO FIX PROP 19
We are grassroots non-partisan volunteers fighting to restore our Prop 58 Parent/Child property transfer rights.

SHARE SHERI'S STORY!
Sheri Duffy voted for Prop 19 and now regrets it. Sheri believed Prop 19 would protect her from property reassessment and tax increases. It didn't!
Sheri lived in her parents' home and cared for them until they died. She and her brother inherited the family home and still live there. However, because of Prop 19, the home is reassessment and the taxes are unaffordable! Prop 19 did not protect her like it was advertised. Read more stories of those affected here.
SEND US YOUR STORIES
Have you or someone you know been impacted by Prop 19 like Sheri Duffy?

Are you a tenant whose rent rose? Were you forced to move from your rental because higher property taxes led to higher rents?
