Proposition 100

Next Tuesday, Arizona voters will determine whether to enact a three-year, one-cent sales tax. If approved, an estimated $1 billion in new annual revenue would be directed into the state's general fund to pay for services and programs, such as education, health care and public safety. If the measure fails, additional new cuts will be made to state agencies [click to see the list of specific programs that would be impacted: Summary of Enacted FY2011 Budget and FY2010 Revisions (4/09/10) pages 5 and 6].
