NEW JERSEY'S TAXES ARE HIGH ENOUGH TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 6TH. POLLS OPEN 6 am to 8 pm. Americans for Prosperity is preparing to work hard to defeat higher taxes and more debt this November by defeating Ballot Questions 1, 2 and 3. This is the opportunity New Jersey Taxpayers have been waiting for. A chance to send a clear message to Trenton-NO More Taxes! Please join me in this effort by putting a Stop Higher Taxes lawn sign on your property and urging your friends to do the same. We also need help distributing signs across the state. WILL YOU HELP ME STOP THESE TAXPAYER RIP-OFFS? Dear fellow taxpayer: With the highest state sales tax, the worst income tax structure and the highest property taxes in the nation, New Jersey taxpayers have hit the breaking point. Our state government is essentially insolvent yet our politicians cannot stop their addiction to spending and taxing. Question 1, if passed, means a blank check to raise the sales tax to 8%. Question 2 gives away nearly a half billion dollars in "grants" for cloning projects that have never cured anything (versus Adult Stem Cell research which is saving lives.) Question 3 sells bonds for money to take property from homeowners and small businesses for "open space" through Eminent Domain. All these ballot questions must be stopped. As executive director of Americans for Prosperity for New Jersey, I am urging you to join our effort to stop these taxpayer rip-offs. Please email me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] (mailto:mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]) or call me at (201) 487-8844 to get an Action Kit and sign up for our newsletters to help beat these questions in your neighborhood. Sincerely, Steve Lonegan Executive Director THREE REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD VOTE NO ON BALLOT QUESTIONS THIS NOVEMBER VOTE NO ON Question 1! YES on Question 1 is a vote for an 8% sales tax. Last year, Governor Corzine and his legislature raised the sales tax from 6% to 7% with the promise of property tax relief. Now they want voters to "permanently dedicate" a 1% sales tax for increased "aid." What Question 1 is really all about is raising the sales tax to 8%. If Question 1 passes, revenues "lost" to "property tax relief" (which never goes to suburban and rural homeowners) will have to be made up with higher sales taxes. Question 1 is a feeble attempt to fool voters into raising their own taxes so corrupt urban politicians can waste more of our money. VOTE NO ON Question 2! YES on Question 2 is a vote for a risky scheme Wall Street won't fund. Question 2 uses deceptive language to imply that this is a vote to fund adult stem cell research projects actually producing cures to diseases. But this science needs no government funding. Wall Street and the Drug Companies are already paying for it. Instead, Question 2 asks voters to give away a half billion dollar corporate welfare handout for Embryonic Stem Cell experiments involving human cloning. While they claim this money will cure diseases ranging from Cancer to Alzheimers to Diabetes, 35 years of this "Fetal Tissue Research" hasn't cured anything. Nothing at all. It's the ultimate taxpayer rip-off. VOTE NO ON Question 3! YES on Question 3 is a vote for Eminent Domain. Question 3 gives the state the power and money to begin "negotiations" with homeowners who live near rivers to sell their land to the state for "open space" -- part of an ongoing effort to stop construction of one family homes in New Jersey in favor of high density attached townhouses, condominiums and apartment buildings. While the question says land will only be taken from "willing sellers" does anyone think a homeowner or small business owner will have any leverage when a judge or bureaucrat decides that "preserving Open Space" is more important than your property rights.
