TODAY: Local Elected Leaders Highlight New Revenue Estimates from Schools & Communities First

Press conference today (May 7, 2020) announced new report that shows billions will go towards local critical services and essential workers

Today at 10:30 AM, the Schools & Communities First campaign will be hosting a Zoom press conference featuring local elected leaders throughout the state to announce a new report showing how revenue generated by the initiative will be distributed to local governments throughout the state.

As cities, counties and the state face unprecedented shortfalls, this report shows how the property tax revenue generated by requiring the biggest corporations to pay their fair share would be distributed for the work of local governments illustrating the fact that Schools & Communities First needs to be a part of California’s long-term solution our state is facing now. According to the report, Schools & Communities First would generate billions for local governments to invest in their most pressing needs, such as public health and first responders.
