How many of us drive a car or ride in one? Nearly everyone, so asking a person if they want our roads fixed is a pre-loaded question. Of course we all want our roads fixed.
When the taxpayer gives money over and over again to fix our roads and the dollars pay for other things, that is a crime. You and I need to stop the abuse that our current Sacramento government has done, is doing, and will do again and again if you let them get away with it.
The only way to stop the abuse is to vote yes on Proposition 6. This will stop the current abuse and repeal Senate Bill 1 that created the gas tax increase. Then, we need to make it illegal to re-direct dollars that are already collected to fix our roads. We have always had the money. We already collect taxes to fix our roads.
Did you see what stops the abuse? It is when you vote yes on Proposition 6. This will send a huge message to Sacramento and San Luis Obispo Coalition of Governments to stop selling and promoting the opposite viewpoint. SLOCOG, the people decide, not you!

Vote republican if you really want to stop the abuse.
If CA would just pay their bills (debt) they wouldn’t have to pay $4 BILLION a year in interest, which would go a long way towards repairing our infrastructure. Additionally, what about the $X BILLIONS of dollars they are receiving from the Marijuana Taxes? Where is that money going? Also the MILLIONS of dollars being save because we have released the prisoners who were only in jail because of low-level drug convictions and we don’t have to arrest, convict, and jail them anymore. Now that CA has an $8 BILLION surplus, can you give us our money back, please?? I’m with Lucio, #VoteDemsOut in November as they have FAILED us all.
