(LA TIMES) – Republican lawmakers on Wednesday said providing Californians much-needed relief from the state’s high cost of living will be a top priority this year, though their proposals face a difficult road in the Democratic-led state Legislature.
The bills announced Wednesday morning will tackle prices at the gas pump, create tax credits for low-income renters, and make tips tax-exempt for workers such as bartenders and manicurists.
“This is the No. 1 issue for California voters, the cost of living,” said Republican Assembly leader James Gallagher of Yuba City.
Gallagher introduced Assembly Bill 286, which would order the Public Utilities Commission to lower electricity rates by 30%. The bill is part of a slew of GOP legislation grounded in conservative principles of lowering government-imposed costs and cutting taxes.
