Support the "Taxpayer Bill of Rights" -- Raleigh on Wednesday, May 25

I want to urge everyone to meet in Raleigh on Wednesday, May 25th at 10:00 am in Rm. 327 of the Legislative Bldg (across from Museum of Natural Science) to support House Bill, H.B. 188 - A Taxpayer Bill of Rights. 

House Bill, H.B. 188 - Taxpayer Bill of Rights - H.B. 188 would amend the state constitution to create a General Fund Expenditure Limit. This amendment would tie future increases in the general fund budget to inflation and population growth. If this bill passed, legislators would no longer be able to make reckless increases in the budget. If they wanted to increase the budget beyond inflation and population growth, it would take an affirmative vote of 2/3 of the legislators of each house of the General Assembly.

Dear Activists,


In the last email I left out the room # for the Legislature Building for Wednesday’s hearing at 10 am on the Taxpayers Bill of Rights. That room number is 1327 of the main building at the General Assembly. Please let me know if you are able to come. Hope to see you there.

Would you be willing to come to Raleigh on Wednesday, May 25 to stand in support of this bill? Would you spread the word to others in your various organizations? You would not need to speak at the hearing but simply be there to support it.
