SAN FRANCISCO — The California Supreme Court agreed Wednesday to decide the legality of the proposed Taxpayers Right to Vote Act, a sweeping anti-tax measure that opponents say would nullify three other prominent initiatives on the fall ballot, even if they were approved by voters.
Opponents of the proposal contend that by requiring a two-thirds voter approval of any special taxes included in ballot measures, the Taxpayers Right to Vote Act could invalidate two anti-crime initiatives as well as a "nickel-a-drink" liquor tax measure on the ballot.
