Any potential savings from the
@GOP's tax cuts are swamped by the rate increases thanks to@TheDemocrats' "Affordable" Care Act. My family's rate TRIPLED IN COST after it became law. -
@julieadamen@brianjcanfield Insurance companies raised your rates or, possibly, you had a "junk plan" earlier. In any case, ACA slowed increases. This time, you have only the GOP to blame if this passes in the Senate. You might want to call & oppose it.https://www.cnbc.com/2017/11/16/gop-tax-bill-would-spike-obamacare-premiums-nearly-2000-for-families.html … -
If I had a "junk plan," then CA's insurance commissioner allows it to be sold as a CA bronze plan. Nice try, though.

It’s worse than losing the mortgage deduction outright. It still technically keeps it, but changes itemization so that you can only use it if you’re super-rich.

8. It taxes graduate students on the tuition waivers they get if they're a research assistant. So a grad student at Caltech who makes $30K/yr would be additionally taxed on $45K/yr of phantom income they never see. This will decimate American

Time for CA to lower State Income taxes (highest in the nation), lower gas tax, lower sales tax, lower vehicle license fees, etc., before you stand on your soap box.

Dirtiest air in the nation. Most cities clean Stormwater runoff with general fund revenue not State taxes. Gas tax rate has nothing with mileage. Overuse of sensitive natural resources by overpopulation due to migration. I was born in CA.
