◼ VOTER RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE UPCOMING ELECTION - Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association
◼ HJTA's and HJTA-PAC's ballot and candidate recommendations for the June 3, 2014 election.
HJTA recommends:
Prop. 41 Veterans Housing Bonds VOTE NO!
PLEASE NOTE: HJTA has changed its position on these bonds after additional information was brought to our attention by several alert HJTA Members.
Usually veterans bonds provide low interest mortgage loans to those who served our country. These bonds are repaid by the veterans themselves and Howard Jarvis always supported these bonds. However, a more detailed review shows that Prop. 41 bonds will be used to construct low income housing and the costs will be paid by state taxpayers.
Prop. 42: Requires local governments to comply with Brown Act and Public Records Act regardless of whether or not they are reimbursed by the state.
Very important to guarantee that local taxpayers have access to public records. VOTE YES!
