2024 CA Senate race: on Tax Reform


Adam Schiff: We need to ensure that the wealthy pay their fair share

We need to ensure that the wealthy pay their fair share. Let's face it--corporations or billionaires should never, ever, pay less taxes than a construction worker. And in our present tax system, that happens. And it's wrong. We must level the playing field. While Republicans continue to protect a tax system that rewards wealth and punishes working families, Democrats are passing legislation to make the economy work for everyone and help people get back on their feet.

Steve Garvey: Career politicians increased taxes and fees, raised costs

For the first time in history, more people are leaving California because they can't afford to live in our great state. This is a direct result of our career politicians in Sacramento and Washington, D.C. continuously passing foolish laws and increasing taxes and fees, resulting in higher costs for our basic needs, such as food, gas, and shelter. I will take a stand against out-of-control inflation and be a voice for the middle class and working families that are the backbone of our state.
