What Capitol Hill Republicans can Learn from the California GOP
Golden State Republicans have thwarted Gov. Jerry Brown's plans for a massive tax increase
In today's POLITICO, ATR explains the lesson that Republicans at the federal level should take away from the recently concluded California budget standoff:
This week marked a huge victory for the GOP in the deficit reduction debate — but in California, not in Washington.
Gov. Jerry Brown has spent the past six months trying to get Republicans to sign on to a renewal of the largest state tax increase in U.S. history.

What the GOP was able to accomplish in California should serve as a model for its Republican counterparts on this side of the Potomac. As is the case on Capitol Hill, Republican votes are required to raise taxes in California — where a two-thirds vote is required to pass tax hikes or refer them to the ballot.
