This is a longer thread, but it's important that the truth about why we need to support #InvestInEd gets out there, because the opposition’s argument about Prop. 208 harming small businesses is bogus. Here’s why:
The only people who will pay the small additional education funding surcharge are single people making over $250k or married couples making over $500k. And the surcharge only applies to the income above those levels.
So, in other words, if you’re a married couple making $501,000 you’ll pay a new surcharge of only $35 on the additional $1,000 in income above the $500k. That’s it.
