Court strikes down California property tax system for education equity
The California Supreme Court ruled that funding public schools cannot be conditioned on wealth and must comply with equal protection under the 14th Amendment. The decision may push lawmakers toward a statewide property tax to equalize district funding, though no revision deadline was set. Governor Reagan’s office cited prior support for statewide taxes and will study the ruling before comment. Sacramento officials warned the decision could compel nationwide reforms to school finance practices.
