relief needed now
Iwould like to thank the many people who have contacted my office regarding
their support for a special session in the Legislature to consider property tax
relief and reform.
I sponsored ACR-218 that would require the Legislature
to meet in a special session to identify the means to provide property tax
relief. The citizens elected legislators to do this job. They should be doing
it.
I have serious reservations regarding the proposed constitutional
convention. A convention that considers only taxing, not spending, is not worthy
of the taxpayers' time and expense. Even if the results of the proposed
convention were beneficial to the taxpayer, the impact would not be felt for
several years. Taxpayers need relief today, not in 2008.
