Professor David Gamage, the Law School Foundation Distinguished  Professor of Tax Law & Policy, published two new articles, Part I and Part II in a series, on the budget deficit faced by the state of California. In his articles, coauthored by Darien Shanske at UC-Davis School of Law, Gamage examines the budget deficit and proposes solutions. Both pieces serve as cover articles in different issues of Tax Notes States.
