In 1986 Proposition 58 passed allowing inheritors to keep their parents similar yearly property tax amount.In 2020 Proposition 19 took that away We need to protect the good parts of Prop 19 and correct the parts that stole your rights. Goals: * To reinstate the original “Parent-Child Exclusion” * If passed, it would allow parents to transfer a primary residence (of any value) and up to $1 million of other property (like rentals or vacation homes) to their children without a tax reassessment. * To protect family and generational homes * To protect seniors and disabled * Seniors are the fasting growing group to experience homelessness * To keep keep teachers in their districts * Prop 19 drives teachers out of districts * To protect Tenants and Affordable Housing * Properties would be subject to reassessment when a landlord passes * Increased rent for tenants to cover the reassessment * Inheritors may need to sell to developers * To protect small businesses * Reassessment may be enough to close these small businesses for good “Property held in a trust is still subject to Prop 19” - Phong La, Alameda County Assessor Fix Prop 19!

In this episode I am joined by award-winning Canadian artist Steph Carse. Steph opens up about his decades-long career, from his early international success in the 1990s to his recent triumph as the winner of the French-Canadian version of The Masked Singer. He shares deeply personal stories of struggle, including a period of homelessness, losing his voice in Las Vegas, and the profound role of faith in his artistic and personal rebirth. Tune in for a conversation about resilience, finding purpose, and the power of an “Impossible Dream.” For more info on Steph Carse, visit his website https://www.stephcarse.com/ • Studio Album – Praise and Worship https://www.amazon.com/Praise-Worship-Steph-Carse/dp/B0G31J5PR8 • Autobiography – The Impossible Dream https://www.amazon.com/Impossible-Dream-Steph-Carse-Biography/dp/B0G3QK2P83/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0 • Children’s Book – I Am Awesomely Made https://www.amazon.com/am-Awesomely-Made-Stephen-Carse/dp/B0G16F1R28 Follow Steph: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/musicbysteph Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/stephcarse/ YouTube ⁨@StephCarseUpTV⁩ Across The Socials @TheAndresSegovia IG: https://www.instagram.com/theandressegovia/ X: https://twitter.com/_AndresSegovia Show Notes: https://TheAndresSegovia.com Support The Show!
