Prop 2 Explained: California’s Rainy Day Fund | Nonpartisan Ad Check (Nov. 3, 2026)

Описание: What does Proposition 2 actually do? I break down California’s Rainy Day Fund measure: what it changes, how the state spending limit really works, how it could affect taxpayer rebates, and which campaign claims hold up.

Prop 2 does not raise taxes. It requires the state to save more in strong revenue years (up to 20% of General Fund taxes instead of 10%), continues extra debt payments through 2040, and changes how savings count under the state spending limit, the part most voters misunderstand.
