Governor Brown Says Tax Plan is About Jobs - Central Coast News KION/KCBA

SACRAMENTO, Calif. -- With about two weeks until the November election, Governor Jerry Brown said his ballot measure to raise taxes is about jobs.

The Democratic Governor had previously focused his campaign for Proposition 30 almost exclusively on education and the $5.4 billion in cuts to schools and community colleges the initiative would prevent this year.

Brown told the congregation at Acts Full Gospel Church in Oakland that the initiative is "very important to schools, to families, to jobs and to California's future."
