Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg said he is considering leaving California if a 5% billionaire tax is adopted. Proposition 40 would impose a one-time 5% tax on individuals with a net worth above $1 billion who were California residents on January 1, 2026. Zuckerberg could face a tax liability of several billion dollars, prompting him to consider a residency change, although such a move may not eliminate his tax obligations.

The November 3, 2026 election will determine its fate, while legislative or judicial actions could alter the proposal before or after voters go to the polls.
