Why we need Robin on the County Council
Robin has been an advocate for District 2 residents for years.
- In May 2010, Robin testified before the Council against increasing county energy taxes. Instead, the Council increased residential energy taxes by 240%! With this kind of record summer heat...who can afford that!
- In 2008, 15,000 county residents signed his ballot petition to slow property taxes and 200,000 voters passed it into law that November.
- Robin has testified against high ICC tolls, Metro fare increases, ever-increasing water fees, electricity rate hikes, and the 20% state sales tax increase.
I've been representing you unofficially for years, but now I'd like your vote in the November elections for a seat on the County Council. The property tax measure you approved in the 2008 election permits one vote on the council to stop large property tax increases. If you elect me in November, I'll be that one vote and I shall make sure your money is spent wisely.
