WEAC Members Cyberlobby Against Tax Scheme

This week, about 400 members of WEAC used the OnWEAC Members Only Cyberlobby to protest a proposed constitutional amendment called the Taxpayer Bill of Rights (TABOR). TABOR would undermine local authority over taxes, resulting in lack of control over services to citizens, including public schools. Also, many people were concerned because the proposed changes were only just made available a few hours before the public hearing. This late release left very little time to examine the amendment and realize the future repercussions. The Legislature is expected to debate the issue in January. The soonest it would go to voters is in the year 2007. http://www.weac.org/Capitol/2003-04/july04/tabor_wrap.htm
