Líderes y organizaciones de California que se oponen a la Proposición 40

El gobernador Gavin Newsom, ambos candidatos a gobernador, la California Teachers Association, la California Medical Association, Planned Parenthood Affiliates of California, la California Professional Firefighters, NAACP California/Hawaii y Equality California se encuentran entre los más de 140 organizaciones y líderes que piden a los californianos votar NO a la Proposición 40.

Organizaciones de salud

  • Planned Parenthood Affiliates of California
    Jodi Hicks, President & CEO

    "[La Proposición 40] tiene un impacto incierto en el presupuesto estatal y carece de especificidad en las asignaciones para la atención médica, lo que a largo plazo resultará más perjudicial que beneficioso. Para proteger el acceso a la atención médica de los millones de pacientes a los que sirven proveedores de servicios de salud como Planned Parenthood, nos hemos opuesto a esta medida e instamos a nuestros socios del sector salud a que hagan lo mismo."

  • Asociación Médica de California
    Rene Bravo, MD, President

    "La Proposición 40 no es la forma adecuada de abordar los problemas de financiación de la atención médica del estado y se elaboró sin tener en cuenta la opinión de los médicos, hospitales, clínicas y demás proveedores que atienden a los pacientes de Medi-Cal a diario. La Proposición 40 depende de una fuente de ingresos inestable, no ofrece una rendición de cuentas clara sobre cómo se gastaría el dinero y no proporciona la solución de financiación a largo plazo que necesitan los pacientes y los profesionales de la salud."

Los defensores tienen un largo historial de promover propuestas erróneas y engañosas que, en realidad, perjudican a los pacientes. Esta medida no es diferente."

California no puede permitirse esta medida fiscal tan mal diseñada."

    “In addition to being a one-time tax, rather than sustainable, long-term help for the state’s budget issues, [Prop. 40] has little specifics on how funds would be spent, with no assurances of any funding for Medi-Cal reimbursement rates… Prop. 40 could be detrimental to the Medi-Cal Dental budget, which is already suffering from severe uncertainty and needs more long-term stability.”

    “San Francisco Democrats care deeply about addressing inequality and making California more affordable, but Proposition 40 is the wrong approach. A one-time tax does not solve the long-term challenges facing our state. When you look at the details, Proposition 40 could make our budget problems worse, putting schools and other essential services at risk while creating greater uncertainty for California’s economy. We need sustainable solutions that strengthen our state, not a measure that creates a new set of problems.”

    Opposed (No)

    "The Billionaire Tax Act would require the estimated 200 Californians whose net worth exceeded $1 billion at the start of this year to pay a one-time 5% tax. Service Employees International Union-United Healthcare Workers West, the group that put the measure on the ballot, projects that it would raise roughly $100 billion over five years. That money would be earmarked primarily for healthcare, with some reserved for food assistance and education. If propositions 41 or 42 earn more votes than Proposition 40, this measure would be nullified."

    C.A.R. Position: AGAINST [OPPOSE]

    This measure seeks to impose a one-time excise/wealth tax of 5% on the net worth of applicable individuals and applicable trusts whose net worth is $1 billion or more, valued as of December 31, 2026. An “applicable individual” is a California resident as of
    January 1, 2026. An “applicable trust” is a non-grantor, non-tax-exempt trust, typically one funded by an applicable individual.

    The Billionaire Tax excludes real property from the net worth calculation when the property is held in one of three forms: directly in the individual’s own name, in a tax exempt trust, or in a revocable living trust. An interest in a real estate investment trust (REIT) or other real estate owning entity is counted toward net worth and valued at the entity level, but the entity itself is not the subject of the tax and is not taxed.

    “California’s veterans know what it means to keep a commitment. Proposition 40 makes promises it can’t guarantee while putting billions in state revenue at risk and adding even more pressure to an already strained state budget. That could leave less funding available for health care, housing, public safety and other essential services veterans, military families and communities across California count on. Veterans deserve responsible, sustainable solutions — not a risky experiment with California’s future.”

We are deeply concerned about what Proposition 40 could mean for California’s economy, state budget, and the essential services veterans depend on. If the measure results in billions in lost state revenue, it could put even more pressure on funding for health care, housing and other critical programs. We want to ensure California remains a place that veterans and their families can afford to live.”

    NO on Prop. 40

    This is the “wealth tax,” supposedly affecting only billionaires but in fact a threat to every California taxpayer and homeowner. Proposition 40 imposes a “one-time tax” of 5% of “covered assets” valued above $1 billion. However, the measure includes language that allows the Legislature to rewrite the law later, potentially changing the thresholds, the assets that are covered, the percentage to be taken, and the number of times the tax would be levied. This is an entirely new type of tax, and we don’t know where it will lead. Will all Californians have to submit forms to the Franchise Tax Board declaring their assets every year? How much will ordinary Californians have to pay for “wealth tax preparation” to comply with this law?
