## Resource

Attorney General Andrea Campbell admitted her office botched the legal review of two major ballot questions — a tax cut and strict rent control — leading to both being struck down by the courts. The tax proposal’s summary was deemed misleading, while the rent control measure included an illegal religious exemption. This marks the third ballot question this year her office failed to clear, though they certified 44 proposals overall, with 11 surviving legal challenges. Campbell defended her team’s record amid record volume, taking personal responsibility while acknowledging the complexity of translating policy for voters. The office is now reevaluating its process to prevent future errors — a sobering reminder that even legal reviews aren’t foolproof, and courts are the final check.
