Let me tell you folks, we must be vigilent on Prop. 13. The liberals are licking their chops to get at this huge source of money. I believe the legislature will not tinker without going back to the voters. Then they will have all the liberal press lined up supporting the increase. We must fight any change, no matter how small, with all the power well have. Once they start changing things they will not stop.

The Legislature still needs a 2/3 vote to get any change to Prop. 13 on the ballot, and I don't think they can do it.

HOWEVER, the unions et. al. are working on a variety of initiatives for the March 2004 and November 2004 ballots, and they could try and get the signatures for something to tweek or remove Prop. 13. We DO need to be vigilent.
