PROPOSITIONS 30 and 31 ARE SPONSORED BY PERSONAL INJURY LAWYERS BUT OPPOSED BY RESPECTED TAXPAYER, CONSUMER, SENIOR, BUSINESS AND PUBLIC SAFETY LEADERS

Make no mistake. Personal injury lawyer-sponsored Propositions 30 and 31 will drive up insurance rates and fraud, allow two lawsuits for every auto accident claim, reward uninsured and drunk drivers with a new right to sue--and cost taxpayers millions.
