Proposition 13 - America's Second Great Tax Revolt My First Book
In 1978, the citizens of California took the historic step of voting for Proposition 13, thus reducing property taxes by 57%. Already known as a trend setting state, California's tax revolt was no different, as similar tax revisions quickly spread across the United States of America.

Library budgets were frequently the target of those cuts.
