Breitbart: Pollak: Repealing or Suspending Measure ULA, So-called 'Mansion Tax,' Could Help Rebuilding of L.A.
Rebuilding in Los Angeles after the January 2025 fires is hindered by Measure ULA, a surtax on property sales over $5 million. Initially aimed at funding homeless initiatives, it has stifled the real estate market, leading to an 80% decline in high-end transactions and failing to meet revenue projections.
The tax's broad application affects various property types, discouraging investment and potentially raising rental prices. Legal challenges are ongoing, with calls for repeal to facilitate recovery efforts. Without immediate action, the measure may further complicate rebuilding efforts for fire victims.
