J Cabou was quoted in the KTAR News article, "Legally Speaking: Phoenix City Council Has Viable Argument for Rideshare Fee," regarding the letter he wrote to Attorney General Mark Brnovich.

Passed in November 2018, Proposition 126 added language to the Arizona Constitution and, according to [J's] letter, “prohibits cities from imposing or increasing (1) ‘any sales tax,’ (2)’transaction privilege tax,’ (3) ‘luxury tax,’ (4) ‘excise tax,’ and (5) ‘use tax.’” It also states that cities “shall not impose or increase any…other transaction-based tax’ or ‘fee’ … on the privilege to engage in … any service performed in this state.”
