Issue Position: Provide Fiscal Discipline and Protect Taxpayers from Governor Wolf's Tax and Spend Policies

Issue Position

By: Dawn Keefer

Date: Jan. 1, 2018

Issues: Taxes Government Budget and Spending

Ever since being elected, Governor Wolf has been demanding over $12 BILLION in new tax revenue by increasing in the Personal Income Tax and Sales Tax. I pledge to stand up to Governor Wolf and his tax and spend policies by looking to cut wasteful state spending and rein in out of control program costs.

We cannot tax and spend our way to prosperity and we do not need budgets that grossly out spend the rate of inflation. The state needs to spend what the taxpayers can afford and not a penny more.
