Please call the vote is tomorrow!
forward response:
Regarding the tax increase, there seems to be a shocking lack of awareness. Hopefully the recent media coverage will bring the issue to the forefront. Please encourage everyone you know to contact the House of Delegates members to express opposition to the bill. It will be on the floor tomorrow, and time is of the essence.
Thank you again,
This morning, the Historic Triangle Bill cleared the House Finance Committee. Please thank the Delegate Pogge for her down vote. Just became aware of the bill today - and I am probably not alone - among the 80,000 constituents. As a resident of York County, I do not support a local surcharge that would subsidize another locale, i.e. Williamsburg.
Know the Session clock is ticking...when do you anticipate the House to vote on the bill? Is there anything we can do as a private citizen or member of a citizen's group to fight this bill?
