End Taxpayer Abuse
I propose to end taxpayer abuse by some Board of Equalization employees by performing a critical and adversarial internal audit of the Board and taking appropriate and corrective action.

I plan to change the Board Hearing procedures to allow more than ten minutes to present information and to reimburse taxpayers for their expenses if they prevail in defending their case.
