Since the “temporary” increases were first passed, government spending has increased by $150 billion—a more than 2.5X increase.
Every vetted record has a fingerprint that two keys signed and a timestamp authority stamped. The signed record, the keys and the receipts are in a public log, so you can check the signed copy there without relying on this site, and then check that this page shows that copy.

Judgments behind this record
Verdict on the claim
Call: Supported
General Fund spending was $91.3 billion in the 2012-13 Budget Act, the year the Proposition 30 rates began. The Analyst for Proposition 3 says the state plans to spend about $250 billion from the General Fund this year. That is an increase of about $159 billion, or about 2.7 times. Context: these are unadjusted General Fund figures, not adjusted for inflation or population, and the argument does not say which spending measure it uses.

Copy the public log and run its script. It reads only the public log: the signed copy of this record, the judgments behind it, the keys and the receipts. It recomputes each fingerprint and checks the proof, both signatures and the timestamps. It checks the signed copy in the log, not the text on this page:
git clone https://github.com/Macpire/ideology-integrity-log
cd ideology-integrity-log
npx tsx integrity/verify-record.ts --log ca-2026 ca-prop-3-claim-4 --repo .To check that the text this site serves is that signed copy, add the site's address. Only this check ties the log to what you read here:
