The Senate passed this legislation at 2:00 o'clock this morning, they ram-rodded it through in about 5 hours to keep us from putting on the breaks like we did with the House. It includes increases [in] the "sin" taxes, raises sales tax, increases new car taxes, and sets up the payroll tax AKA Income Tax. The bill must go to Committee now but our only real hope is to flood Gov. Perry with phone calls, faxes and emails. Please ping and email everyone you can to get involved so we can stop this.Oh, my. :^O

THIS IS MY EMAIL TO THE GOVERNOR OF THE STATE OF TAXES:
(The new spelling of the state name is approperate)
Dear Governor,
This concerns HB 3 the massive tax increase that is being rammed thru the legislature. I am SEVERELY disappointed at the republican in this state for even entertaining this abomination. I can not say strongly enough that I am opposed to any new taxes othe hard working people of Taxes (Note the new spelling ot out state name, it now fits.) We need tax relief and a property appraisal cap not a bunch of new taxes. I hope the Governor wil veto this and all other new taxes that hi this desk.
If not I will look forward to supporting his opposition.
Sincerely,
Scott Langseth
I called Senators and Reps.....now I will take my punishment. What a sham.
Please remove me from your ping list.
