No on 98 Files Lawsuit to Ensure Ballot Title Summary Accurately Reflects Prop 98 ProvisionsKathy Fairbanksbyline‚ Feb. 26‚ 2008Yesterday, members of the No on 98 / Yes on 99 coalition filed a lawsuit in Sacramento County Superior Court, asking a judge to change the official title of Proposition 98 to include mention of the measure's rent control provisions. Currently, the official title of the measure prepared by the California Attorney General's Office only informs voters of the measure's eminent domain provisions, and excludes any mention of eliminating rent control, which is one of Prop. 98's main provisions. The summary itself includes mention of rent control as the second point, but not the title. |
