House of Delegates Speaker Bill Howell has come through for those who oppose the massive tax hikes proposed by Senate Republicans.
According to the Washington Post,
"The House speaker's choice of budget negotiators doesn't help matters, [liberal Democrat Sen. Janet D. Howell] said. He broke with the tradition of appointing the most senior members of the Appropriations Committee, skipping over some who are viewed as centrists to add one of the House's most conservative members and an anti-tax Democrat to the five-member team. House Republicans shouted, 'Hold the line!'and 'Fight like a Greek hero' as they congratulated Del. M. Kirkland Cox (R-Colonial Heights) on his appointment." (end of Post quote)
This is good news. My man Kirk Cox is a true fiscal conservative.
