AB 1718 LEGISLATIVE ALERT: (from AARP)
Help Disabled Californians Remain in Their Homes
Dear friend,
Thousands of disabled and older Californians need your help to continue living in their own homes. The suspension of the California Senior and Disabled Citizens Property Tax Postponement Program in 2009 leaves these individuals vulnerable to eviction and foreclosure.
Please call Governor Schwarzenegger today and urge him to sign AB 1718 (Blumenfield), the Senior and Disabled Property Tax Postponement bill.
The office is open M-F from 9-5.
Assembly Bill 1718 (Blumenfield) would allow counties to opt in and defer property taxes for the disabled, as well as eligible low and moderate income older homeowners. Taxes would later be collected upon death, sale or transfer of the property.
To be connected directly to the Governor, dial toll free 1-800-764-5755. You will hear a message about the bill and then be prompted to convey your support for AB 1718. Tell the Governor this is the right thing to do because it maintains the security and dignity of thousands of older Californians.
