Great question!---Why isn't the GOP fighting proposed tax increase?

LETTER TO THE EDITOR: Why isn't the GOP fighting proposed tax increase? | MLive.com
On May 5, Michigan voters have been asked by lazy and incompetent legislators, to vote on what will be the largest tax increase in nearly 50 years, if passed.
This "Transportation" tax will raise $2 billion and once fully implemented in 2018 nearly 40 percent ($700 million plus) won't go to fix a single pothole/road.
Higher taxes/vehicle registration fees, and special interest deals are all part of Proposal 15-1.
This tax is not about road safety, which is contrary to the TV and radio advertisements as well as our governor, who lied about Proposal 15-1 as being the only plan to fix the roads.
Where does the Allegan County Republican Party stand on the proposal to raise Michigan's sales tax?
...The Allegan County GOP should be outraged at the proposed tax increase.
Are they?

Allegan County TEA Party Chairman
