Economic Development & Advocacy Meeting - Proposed Tax Hikes

San Diegan's pay some of the highest taxes in the country, including the highest sales tax,  gas tax, state income tax, and some of the highest property taxes. 

But that is not the end, there are more proposed tax hikes coming our way that will impact residents, homeowners, and businesses.

We will be joined by Carl DeMaio with Reform California to talk about Stopping Tax Hikes and Other Policies That Hurt Businesses.
