How about it?

California is the first state to adopt this rule, setting the requirement at five years of back taxes; but Illinois and New Jersey already have the matter under consideration.

Shouldn’t the most progressive state in the Union also be the most transparent?

Norms no longer seem to be sufficient.   With Trump’s cautionary tail sitting in the Oval Office, its time to codify some protections for our democracy before it’s too late.  We have to do what we can on a state level because Congress has been effectively neutered.

That is all I’ve got to say.  Thank you.
