What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Proposition 40, the California billionaire tax, is being challenged by two other propositions placed on the ballot: Prop. 41 and Prop. 42. Prop. 41 would require audits of new tax programs, while Prop. 42 prohibits new state personal property taxes and certain retroactive state taxes. If either measure passes, it could invalidate the billionaire's tax.
