Editorial on Willie Brown tax relief bill hurting California business
The piece blasts the Assembly Ways and Means Committee bill as a $535 million tax relief disguise that would raise statewide taxes and increase the cost of doing business. It argues the plan would slash job creation, rely on a looming surplus, and push a split roll tax shift needing a constitutional amendment, likely triggering a battle with the governor and Senate. The author urges defeat on the Assembly floor and warns of further tax proposals that would burden businesses.
