Straw, Lawrence Biography Howard Jarvis was born in 1902, in Utah, one of five children. After getting his law degree at the University of Utah, he decided not to practice law, but instead bought newspapers. He purchased eleven weeklies in Utah. He came to Los Angeles, California, in 1935 and purchased a small chemical company. Later, he developed a device to silence office machinery, followed by a process to demagnitize the hulls of U.S. warships so they wouldn't attract magnetic mines. Jarvis then went into business as a producer of appliances and aircraft sub-assemblies. At 59, with a staff of 13,000 Guide to the Howard Jarvis 1671-1681, 1974, 2119-2124 (B40: A20 b1-b4; A22 b3; A24 3 Collection, 1970-1986 b5-A26 a1) employees, he retired. He turned his attention to the fight to reduce taxes. With Paul Gann, he cosponsored Proposition 13. It passed in 1978 by a two to one margin, changing the way taxes are levied, collected and distributed in California. Its ultimate result was to reduce tax bills for property owners and, therefore, restrict the flow of revenue to state and local governments. Jarvis went on to pass Proposition 7 (income tax indexing) in 1987 and to author Proposition 62, which passed on the November 1986 ballot after his death. He was president of the Apartment House Association of Los Angeles and chairman of the United Organization of Taxpayers and chairman of the American Tax Reduction Movement. He died at age 83 on August 15, 1986. Contents Clippings, periodicals, awards, audio tapes, video tapes, photographs, correspondence, news releases.

Have Californians come to accept this state of affairs as normal? In 1990, voters approved a gas tax increase. Politicians promised the tax would fund much needed repairs on city, 1 county and state roads and infrastructure. ​ Instead, ​ Californians came to experience roads that are among the nation’s worst. In 2017, Sacramento once again raised gas taxes, then gave a misleading ballot title and summary to an 2 initiative that would have repealed the increase. ​ With such ​ a history of betrayal, should it be any surprise that on September 20, 2019, Governor Gavin Newsom issued an executive order redirecting the money to railways and programs designed to reduce automobile use? If there ever was a time to consider a better approach, perhaps now is it. With economic losses from the COVID-19 virus impacting our economy, potentially resulting in major reductions in anticipated tax revenue, the politicians could be back yet again to request more of our hard earned money. Instead of approving such a request, why not examine their track record so far? ● Sacramento stole over $330 million meant for distressed homeowners, which it was ordered to repay.3 ​ ● $242 million in additional funding was given to the state DMV to alleviate their lack of preparation for Real ID, something they’ve known about for years.

SECURE CHOICE SUMMARY** Employee Retirement Income Security Act Affirming the district court’s dismissal, the panel held that ERISA does not preempt a California law that creates CalSavers, a state-managed individual retirement account program for eligible employees of certain private employers that do not provide their employees with a tax-qualified retirement savings plan. The panel held that Congress’s repeal of a 2016 Department of Labor rule that sought to exempt CalSavers from ERISA under a safe harbor did not resolve the preemption question. Further, even if ERISA’s safe harbor did not apply to CalSavers, the panel would still need to determine whether CalSavers otherwise qualified as an ERISA program.

  • Warren's Way Back from the Budget Cliff
    WARREN’S WAY BACK FROM THE BUDGET CLIFF: “ACTION, ACTION, ACTION” WON’T BE NOT ENOUGH* Werner Z. Hirsch, UCLA Professor Emeritus Daniel J.B. Mitchell, Ho-su Wu Professor at the UCLA Anderson School of Management & Department of Public Policy, UCLA School of Public Affairs “We support Prop 57 and we support Prop 58, and I think you will see very shortly even the Democratic Party will come on board and support both of those initiatives. They are essential to our economic survivability. We need those in order for the state’s fiscal crisis not to be pushed over a cliff.” Assembly Speaker Fabian Nuñez supporting state borrowing to cover past and current deficits under Propositions 57 and 58 on the March 2004 ballot1 “…Never again will the politicians drive our state to the verge of bankruptcy. It will be a whole new ballgame. Trust me.” Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger supporting Propositions 57 and 582 “You really know how to hurt a guy.” Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger when asked whether his budget proposals, involving borrowing to cover deficit spending, were not similar to former Governor Davis’ proposals3 In the previous edition of California Policy Options, we traced the evolution of California’s state budget crisis up through the October 2003 gubernatorial recall election.4 Various remedies that have been discussed by fiscal analysts were outlined in that chapter. None of these proposals have been adopted. The budgetary fix of 2004-05 is widely viewed as temporary and postpones problems that will emerge in later years. Although through July 2004 attention focused on the day-to-day negotiations and procedures that ultimately produce the annual state budget, the fact is that the forces that led to the budget crisis developed over many years.
