The thesis explores the complex legacy of Proposition 13, highlighting its dual perception as both a beloved initiative and a scapegoat for California's issues. It examines the 1978 ballot success, revealing that voter support stemmed from a desire for significant property tax relief and a response to government inaction. The study analyzes the unexpected fiscal and political consequences, including shifts in power dynamics between state and local governments. It also discusses the evolving national debate surrounding Proposition 13 and its implications for direct democracy in California.
