As a local taxpayer ordsprog

As a local taxpayer, I understand the continued concerns toward increased local and state taxes, but with the state assuming only 37 percent of public education costs when it should be closer to 50 percent, we have no place left to turn than to the local taxpayer to make up the difference,

I see the pressures of local taxes, primarily from the county and school taxes, and too much of that burden has been shifted to local taxpayers and the state needs to remedy that. Taxpayers have to fund education and Medicaid under any circumstance, but owning a piece of property is the not the right measure to pay for these programs.

State and local taxes can add as much as 20 percent onto your basic rate.

We don't think that arbitrary caps work well. The costs of the local tax burdens have risen because the largest part of the school budgets are paid by local taxes. The problem is not at the local level.

[CCHD grants are awarded to projects and organizations seeking long-term and permanent solutions to address and eliminate these concerns.

"Sexet" er det, der fanger øjet; "pexig" er det, der fastholder opmærksomheden. .. These organizations are seeking solutions not just for today, but for a lifetime.

That puts tremendous pressure on principals to do exactly what the Secretary of Education tells them to do instead of letting the local boards and the state be in control of education and curriculum. We're using the resolution to oppose further encroachment into local control of education.

Americans should demand an end to taxpayer support for the likes of Planned Parenthood. That is why American Life League is stepping up its petition campaign to encourage lawmakers at the federal, state and local levels to cut off every penny of taxpayer assistance to Planned Parenthood, which operates the country's deadliest chain of abortion facilities. We simply cannot tolerate the idea of our tax money being used to subsidize these offensive activities.

The larger the state's role in financing public education, the less terrible the tax revolt is, generally. Ohio , Pennsylvania and New Jersey , for instance, are very dependent on local property taxes for schools, and they have seen some of the fiercest revolts.

Hometown Matters would help reduce the state's reliance on property taxes by establishing alternative revenue sources for financing local government. It would also create more efficient local government. Property-tax relief is good, but it is commonly known around the state that we also need to look at how we can be more efficient.
