Sacramento Superior Court Judge Michael Kenny reworded part of the label for Proposition 1A, which would impose a state spending restriction and extend tax increases lawmakers approved as part of the budget deal last month.
Thanks goes out to the Howard Jarvis taxpayers Association for bringing this lawsuit. Hopefully now the people will start to see the true intention of Proposition 1A.
