== About the San Diego County Taxpayers Association ==
SDCTA is San Diego's non-profit, non-partisan, local public policy think tank and government watchdog group. We work to reduce the need for tax revenue or taxpayer debt by advocating for policies that create efficiencies in public services, which affect San Diegans’ quality of life and against policies that disengage, disaffect, and disenfranchise the taxpayer. To work toward this goal, we conduct independent research on ballot measures and issues affecting taxpayers throughout San Diego county.
