    GOP Holding California Hostage!

    California Democrats have desperately tried to pass a bill that would put a proposition on the ballot that allows for tax increases to reduce our deficit. 2/3 of the State legislature are required to send the proposal to the ballot. That translates to 2 Republicans in the Assembly and 2 Repubs in the State Senate. Guess what, they vote NO. So, let me be clear here. They vote against the citizen's right to decide whether taxes should be increased or not. They are NOT even giving taxpayers a chance to vote for higher taxes!!
