Government doesn’t always have a revenue problem — it has a spending problem. I joined @california.insider to talk about why I believe Californians should be able to keep more of their hard-earned money instead of facing constant new taxes and fees. I will always be a voice against erroneous and misleading tax measures especially in places like my hometown of San Diego and the State of California that only take more money out of your pocket when it is already as difficult as it is to pull everything together at the dining room table. Watch this clip from our conversation. 🎥 #lowtaxation #california #sandiego #noonmeasurea

Measure A must be stopped. This proposed tax is not going to establish new housing, not going to put forth any real solutions. It’s just another tax to fill the hole. City voters are smarter than this. They don’t want more tax money spent with no return on investment and no guarantee of where it will be spent. #NoonmeasureA #NOONA

Vote No on #MeasureA for Santa Clara County! Some data on how many taxes were burdened on to Santa’s clara county residents from the past 2 decades. If you can keep your calmness after reading it, you are a nice taxpayer! Stack the county’s health-care tax on top of SB 63 and the result is stark: residents in parts of the county would pay over 10% sales tax. Campbell already sits at 9.875% after its 2024 voter-approved increase; add SB 63’s 0.5% plus the proposed 0.625% health care tax and you are at 11%. San Jose is at 9.375% today; add on 0.5% and it jumps to 9.875%, and a county health-care tax of even 0.625% would push it past 10%. A 10% sales tax means $100 extra on a $1,000 purchase, a burden that weighs heavier on those with less. This isn’t happening by accident. Over the past decade, the county has renewed or added multiple layers: the 2012 Measure A one-eighth-cent general tax for county services, and 2016’s Measure B, a half-cent for VTA that began collections in 2017. Cities layered on their own district taxes. Each step was marketed as modest or temporary. The cumulative rate is neither.

The consequences of not holding City Hall accountable will be far more devastating. Stop wasteful spending! #NOonMeasureA

Measure U, passed in 2022, promised street improvements, but its $850 million in bonds haven’t been issued by March 2025, delaying all projects. Measure A’s half-cent sales tax hike—$30 million annually—lacks a specific plan. In 2023, Oakland spent $120 million on homelessness with no tracked outcomes. The firefighters’ union, raising $187,000 to pass Measure A for more funds, overspent $30 million on overtime last year! Vote NO on April 15. #NoOnMeasureA #StopTheSalesTax
