加州民主党州长加文·纽瑟姆正面临又一次打击:他此前警告称,一项大规模财富税可能导致财富和企业逃离该州,而这项税收提案现已正式纳入11月的投票清单。
尽管遭到纽瑟姆反对,该提案的支持者“现在就征收亿万富翁税”组织周四宣布,该提案已正式纳入加州投票清单。这项名为《加州亿万富翁税法》的提案将对资产超过10亿美元的加州居民征收一次性“紧急”5%的税。该提案得到了佛蒙特州独立参议员伯尼·桑德斯的背书,桑德斯称其“在前所未有的财富集中和收入不平等日益加剧的时代,是合理且必要的”。
然而,作为民主党总统提名的热门人选传闻中的领跑者,纽瑟姆强烈反对这项税收,他担心亿万富翁们会干脆搬到德克萨斯州或佛罗里达州等州。
在一篇关于该税收提案的长篇Substack文章中,纽瑟姆写道:“昨晚,加州将一项财富税纳入11月投票清单已成定局。我将投反对票。”

“你或许无法收拾行囊搬到德克萨斯州或佛罗里达州以规避所得税,但我可以向你保证,亿万富翁们可以,而且确实这么做了,”他写道,并补充道,“财富是可流动的,它会选择税收最低的州。”
加州已经流失了埃隆·马斯克、谷歌联合创始人拉里·佩奇和甲骨文创始人拉里·埃里森等知名商界人士,纽瑟姆并非唯一警告称亿万富翁税可能加剧加州持续人口外逃的人。
今年早些时候,硅谷科技企业家艾莉森·胡恩在接受福克斯新闻数字频道采访时预测,这项税收将引发“大规模移民潮”,首当其冲的“不仅是亿万富翁,还有那些为新创意、新基础设施投资的人,无论是人工智能、医疗保健、科技还是机器人领域”。
胡恩将拟议的增税比作一家即将倒闭的餐厅。
“他们非但不降价,反而涨价,”她说,“然后你走进餐厅,一碗做得很糟糕的饺子要卖50美元。”

在该提案纳入投票清单的消息传出后,纽瑟姆呼吁美国征收全国性亿万富翁税,并推行他所谓的“新社会契约”。
在X平台的一篇帖子中,纽瑟姆写道:“这个体系从根本上已经崩溃。联邦税法、企业法和遗产法都是为另一批美国人制定的。现在是进行经济重置的时候了。”
在他的Substack文章中,他辩称“让最富有的美国人多缴税的斗争,不应该在各州之间展开”。相反,他写道,“这场斗争理应在联邦层面展开,这个支离破碎的体系最初就是在那里形成的。”
今年1月,有报道称加州一些最富有的居民将资金和企业迁出该州,纽瑟姆表示他反对这项拟议财富税的立场得到了印证,并警告该法案将损害经济并吓跑投资。
“这正是我所担心的,”纽瑟姆周一在接受《政客》采访时说,“这正是我此前警告过的情况。这正在发生。”
“证据已经摆在眼前。其影响非常真实——不仅在收入方面存在实质性的经济影响,还涉及初创企业,以及……人们对长期承诺、中期承诺产生质疑的间接影响,”他继续说道,“在当前如此多不确定性的时刻,这不是我们所需要的。恰恰相反。”
尽管纽瑟姆反对,支持该税收提案的组织——由服务雇员国际联盟——联合医疗保健工作者西部分会赞助的“现在就征收亿万富翁税”组织,还是将其纳入了投票清单。
该工会声称,这项税收将“防止加州医疗体系崩溃,并帮助资助加州公立K-14教育和州食品援助计划”。

“现在就征收亿万富翁税”组织对该提案的通过充满信心,他们在X平台上发帖称:“尽管少数有争议的亿万富翁及其在萨克拉门托的同伙希望看到加州医院关门,并保护亿万富翁的税收减免——但民意站在我们这边。”
与此同时,纽瑟姆的一些批评者声称,他反对该提案是为了吸引潜在的总统竞选捐款人。

“现在就征收亿万富翁税”组织转发了进步调查新闻机构《杠杆》创始人戴维·西罗塔在X平台上的一篇帖子,西罗塔在帖子中声称:“加文·纽瑟姆试图保护250位潜在的2028年总统竞选捐款人,即便这意味着他的300万选民会因医疗费用而破产。”
当被置评时,纽瑟姆的办公室指示福克斯新闻数字频道查阅他的Substack文章和视频。

Newsom begs Californians to vote ‘no’ on billionaire’s tax in face of mass exodus, pitches nationwide tax hike

FOX Business Host Cheryl Casone reports on California’s controversial billionaire tax, a one-time 5% levy on residents worth over $1 billion. This measure, which would retroactively apply from January 1, 2026, is opposed by Gov. Gavin Newsom. Critics question its legality and potential for billionaires to exit the state.

California Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom is facing another blow after a massive wealth tax he warned could cause a wealth and business exodus from the state was officially added to the November ballot.
Despite his opposition, the measure’s sponsor, Billionaire Tax Now, announced Thursday that it was officially being added to the state’s ballot. The measure, called the California Billionaire Tax Act, would impose a one-time, “emergency” 5% tax on Californians with assets exceeding $1 billion. The tax has been endorsed by socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., who called it “reasonable and necessary” “at a time of unprecedented and growing wealth consolidation and income inequality.”
However, Newsom, a rumored frontrunner for the Democratic Party’s presidential nomination, has come out strongly against the tax, citing fears that billionaires will simply up and leave to states like Texas or Florida.
In a lengthy Substack post on the tax, Newsom wrote, “Last night, it became certain that a wealth tax would be placed on the November ballot in California. I’m voting no.”

“You may not be able to pick up and move to Texas or Florida to shelter your income from taxation, but I promise you that billionaires can, and do,” he wrote, adding, “Wealth is movable, and it shops for the state with the lowest taxes.”
In a state that has already lost prominent business figures such as Elon Musk, Google co-founder Larry Page and Oracle founder Larry Ellison, Newsom is not the only one warning that the billionaire tax could worsen California’s ongoing exodus.
Earlier this year, Silicon Valley tech entrepreneur Allison Huynh predicted in an interview with Fox News Digital that the tax would cause a “mass migration,” starting with “not just the billionaires, but the people who are investing in new ideas, in new infrastructure, whether it’s AI, healthcare, tech, robotics.”
Huynh likened the proposed tax hike to a restaurant about to go out of business.
“Instead of lowering the price, they increase the price,” she said. “And then you go into the restaurant, and it’s like $50 for a bowl of really bad dumplings.”
Fox News Digital reached out to Billionaire Tax Now for comment.

After news of the measure being added to the ballot broke, Newsom called on the U.S. to institute a national billionaire tax and what he referred to as “a new social contract.”
In an X post, Newsom wrote that “the system is fundamentally broken. The federal tax code, a corporate code, and an inheritance code were written for a different set of Americans. It’s time for an economic reset.”
In his Substack post, he argued “the fight to make the wealthiest Americans pay more in taxes is not one we should be fighting state by state.” Instead, he wrote, “The fight belongs at the federal level, where this broken system was created in the first place.”
In January, Newsom said he felt vindicated in opposing the proposed wealth tax after reports showed some of California’s wealthiest residents moving money and businesses out of the state, warning the measure would damage the economy and drive away investment.
“This is my fear,” Newsom said in a Politico interview on Monday. “It’s just what I warned against. It’s happening.”
“The evidence is in. The impacts are very real — not just substantive economic impacts in terms of the revenue, but start-ups, the indirect impacts of … people questioning long-term commitments, medium-term commitments,” he continued. “That’s not what we need right now, at a time of so much uncertainty. Quite the contrary.”
Despite Newsom’s opposition, the group behind the tax effort — Billionaire Tax Now, sponsored by the Service Employees International Union – United Healthcare Workers West — proceeded to add it to the ballot.
The union posits that the tax will “prevent the collapse of California healthcare and help fund California public K-14 education and state food assistance programs.”

Billionaire Tax Now is confident the measure will pass, posting on X that “while a few controversial billionaires and their buddies in Sacramento want to see California’s hospitals close and tax breaks for billionaires protected – popular support is on our side.”
Meanwhile, some of Newsom’s detractors claim that his opposition to the measure is driven by a desire to appeal to potential presidential donors.

Billionaire Tax Now reposted an X post by David Sirota, founder of the progressive investigative news outlet The Lever, in which he asserted that “Gavin Newsom is trying to protect 250 prospective 2028 presidential donors, even if that means 3 million of his constituents are medically bankrupted.”
Reached for comment, Newsom’s office directed Fox News Digital to his Substack and video.
