CA has changed radically. I doubt we could even get enough signatures to qualify anymore. He’ll win in not just a landslide, but a mega-landslide in Nov. I love my little Pasadena enclave but the GOP might as well just pack up and leave here. It’s Moonbat heaven.

To be sure, I think he’s a flaming leftie, but by comparison to the likes of Kamala Harris and Gavin Newsome, he’s downright “centrist.”

Agreed, Harris and Newsome are worse, at least Brown has made a few sane decisions.

Okat, I admit to being a little confused about this change.
Can somebody tell me just how exactly this will effect property taxes for people who are under 187?

I rethink this is merely symbolic. IIRC when the prop was dismissed by the court it was most of the provisions but not all.

The battle is lost in Cal. Find another place to draw the line.

Nevada is filled with my fellow California refugees.

As is Arizona.

Prop 13 was the property tax limitation passed by voters in 1978.

Prop 187 was passed by voters in 1994 to deny benefits to illegals.

California just after World War II: Can you believe that California was at least 80% white? Sad. What in the world happened?

I have never lived in California. I live a long ways from California.

Sorry, I had it confused with prop 13. This had me almost ready to put the house up for sale and move out of state.

lol

I’m surprised Brown hasn’t tried that. The proposition was aimed at him when he was governor first time.

last time I voted there as well. Did a lot of good getting rid of Davis, didn't it?

Hearing the screeching of liberals was worth it though......

” I think one of our few remaining options to to avoid patronizing companies that promote leftist causes, and buy products made in red states or from companies that don’t promote leftist causes, to the best of our ability, even if it means buying foreign.

If we can agree that our nation’s survival is at stake, then we can agree to avoid patronizing those who are destroying it.”

Go a step farther
Contribute enough to private charities every year to eliminate paying State and Federal income tax.

Cut the money off legally

Feinswine, Boxer, and Pelousy are among the tops in that list. Notheast liberals should have been shut out and refused entry in the 1970's when they started streaming in.

I was in California when it passed. The only people against it were... immigrants. From Mexico, Ireland, wherever.

Government of the aliens, by the aliens and for the aliens.
