California lawmakers and advocates push to end property taxes, citing Proposition 13's role in housing shortages and tax inequity.
California lawmakers and housing advocates are renewing calls to eliminate property taxes, arguing that Proposition 13, passed in 1978, no longer serves the state’s needs and contributes to housing shortages and inequitable tax burdens.
While Proposition 13 capped property tax increases, critics say it has led to wealthier homeowners benefiting disproportionately while local governments struggle with revenue.
Proposals to replace property taxes with alternative revenue sources, such as a state-wide sales or income tax, are gaining traction as part of broader efforts to address affordability and fiscal fairness.
