Repeal California Rural Fire Fee (Tax)

Repeal the Illegal $150 per parcel California Rural Fire Fee imposed on property owners by the California State Legislature and Governor Brown.

Why is this important?

This so called fee is actually a tax imposed on all California rural property owners by Cal Fire. It imposes a $150 yearly tax on over 800,000 properties in the state. This is an illegal tax that did not get a 2/3 majority vote by the state Legislature. This requirement was circumvented by Governor Brown and the Legislature by calling this tax a fee.
