Prop 16 - VOTE NO! on California's June, 2010 Ballot - Official Opposition Website - Taxpayers Against the PG&E Power Grab

Don't be Fooled: The PG&E Initiative is About Monopoly, Not Taxes

PG&E is posing as taxpayer rights advocate and manipulating California voters into ignoring the messenger and the purpose of Prop 16: Pacific Gas & Electric Corporation, peddling taxpayer rights to steal back its monopoly from ratepayers who have paid dearly for the privilege of choice - by persuading Californians to vote against their own right to choose. The League of Women Voters, California Asociation of Realtors, Sierra Club, The Utility Reform Network and many others join local governments and public officials all over California to oppose Prop 16, linked to original source material below.

This page features direct links to official government documentation of PG&E's initiative and related political activities, as well as recent articles by independent newspapers and official editorial board statements opposing Prop 16.
