Mike Schaefer, "The Equalizer," is proud to serve as your Elected Taxpayer Advocate on the State Board of Equalization Fourth District, serving 10 million of you, his constituents, in the counties of San Diego, Orange, Riverside, Imperial, and San Bernardino.
Mike was elected by his colleagues unanimously in December 2021, to serve a third term as Vice Chair of the State Board of Equalization.
“I will continue to fight for tax justice and equity for all Californians and serve as a fiscal watchdog with oversight responsibilities for the $77 billion property tax system, which funds schools and local government services, our constituents count on,” Schaefer said.
Mike Schaefer is proud of his work on behalf of taxpayers across California as Vice Chair of the State Board of Equalization, the only elected tax board in the country.

As our Vice Chair, Mike Schaefer has been a taxpayer advocate for all Californians, helping families, individuals, veterans, and seniors to navigate changing property tax laws including the implementation of Proposition 19.

Biographical Highlights: Mike Schaefer, Elected Taxpayer Advocate and Vice Chair, California State Board of Equalization

I have worked in property tax assessment at the Board of Equalization for thirty years. I run the Southern California office of the Board of Equalization.

Top contributors that gave money to support the candidate, by organization:
I am a progressive, environmentalist, and animal rights supporter. In my long career in property tax assessment, I have seen how elements of Proposition 13 are essential to protect homeowners in the extreme Southern California real estate environment. Much can be done within the property tax system to encourage owner-occupied home ownership. I support laws that preserve open space and California’s agricultural heritage. Many believe that property tax law is written in stone. The truth is that property tax law changes every year. You deserve someone with the knowledge and experience necessary to navigate these changes.
Raised at the beach I always appreciate the opportunity to keep our ocean environment clean and healthy. Whether it is picking up a plastic bag as I walk up from a surf or participating in an organized beach clean up it simply feels great to be at the beach and enjoy the natural beauty. Today was especially rewarding because I got to work with the wonderful volunteers at the Surfrider Foundation and also meet up with some fellow Alumni from my alma mater the University of Arizona.
