Dear Editor,
This November, voters in [YOUR TOWN] will not get to vote on banning an income tax
in New Hampshire — and that is not an accident.
On May 14, the House had a chance to send CACR 12, a permanent constitutional ban on an
income tax, to the ballot. It had already passed the Senate 16-8. All it needed was a
three-fifths vote to let the people decide. All but four Democrats voted it down, and the
ban failed 193-148. That same day, Democrats voted to authorize a progressive income tax
in our constitution.
Democrats say they oppose an income tax. Their votes say otherwise. Polling shows 71% of
Granite Staters oppose one — which is presumably why they preferred we never got to
vote on it. The only vote we do get is on November 3, and I intend to use mine.
[Your Name]
[Your Town]
