4.14: State Fiscal Relief

Provide $25 Billion in state fiscal relief to help avoid painful property tax increases.

Other Information:

Budget crunches across the nation are putting our local governments in the untenable position of having to choose between raising property taxes and cutting vital services. Obama has proposed $25 billion in state fiscal relief that, coupled with the new emergency facility to address the state credit crunch, will help states and localities continue to provide essential services like health care, police, fire and education without raising taxes or fees.
