The turnout is disappointing, but hopefully, you are keeping the heat on lawmakers not to raise taxes.
Remember, you can't tax yourself into prosperity or a balanced budget. The more taxes go up, the less the private sector produces, and revenues decline. They raised taxes $1.5 billion two years ago to "balance" the budget. So how does that explain the $3 billion shortfall this year?
Contact you lawmaker here.
Tell them, "We already cut our budget this year. Please don't make us cut it again so you don't have to."

It's just possible we could put public employees and former state representatives (sorry Jack) in the same sort of economy the rest of us have to live in.
Tell the legislators they can come back and start working, the Tigers game is over and the celebration is not until they clinch - tomorrow at the earliest.

Granholm needs to give her salary back
Mr. Hoogendyk,
Please remind if possible, especially the R's: I promise the sun will come up tomorrow, there will be another day. Not so for a vote at the polls if they don't stand firm.
We homeschool so the school cuts don't bother us. But we have never gotten a tax credit for saving the school system money by schooling our own children.
Please put up a link to the Senate, too. I just sent my esteemed senator a reminder to hold the line on taxes.
I sent Huckleberry an e-mail yesterday and today. Yesterday I told him I was planning on him getting a pink slip when he runs for re-election because of his tax and spend policies.
I also sent him a message today telling him he had better vote no on any tax increases or he can consider himself a lame duck.
I also contacted the RNC today and told them I want to work in my county to rid our state of the tax and spenders.
