#TaxingTyrants

Had Enough Yet of the #TaxingTyrants in our current out of control one party ruled government?

Are you tired of hearing that there’s not going to be a tax increase & the budget is fine only to hear days after the election that there’s an accounting problem & oops golly gee guess we’re going to have to raise the taxes on the working families & businesses & it’s your family & mine that now has to scramble to pay for the corporate welfare & crony spending projects that have been paid for without our consent.

Vote Them Out Taxing Tyrants

Wanted for being #TaxingTyrants
Vote Them Out!

Has #MalloysMess put a dent in your family pocketbook?

Does the prospect of paying by the mile for each mile that you drive sound like a good way for your family to spend their money?

How about an increase in the fees that you pay for any license or document that you need at the town hall because of the budget cuts?

Do you have a professional license that will have it’s fees raised & a tax added to your service on top of that?

Are you Ready for a Fresh New Start?

Then maybe it’s time to look to a New Person with a Different & New Way of Looking at how we should do things in the CT General Assembly…

Theresa Tillett is running for state senate to be that Voice For The People, her family is hurting just like yours from all of these increasing taxes & expenses.

We need a person that is part of the regular working class people fighting for our families up at the capitol because the career politicians have made a mess of our state.

We need a person with a Fresh New View; someone who will ask the questions “Why do we need it?” & more importantly “How much will it cost taxpayers or affect businesses?”

We need a person that is not owing favors to special interests but is answerable to the people who live in the district & understands that not everything that glitters is gold nor a good idea for our families that are already having problems paying their bills.

#VoteRowB this year on election day & let’s move CT towards the better road. Elect Theresa Tillett to the state senate to be the Voice For The People of the 2nd District.

Which Direction CT? #YouHaveAChoice

We are at a crossroads in the 2nd District, and in the state…

Are we going to make a change or are we going to stay on the same old failed path over the fiscal cliff?

Have you taken a look at your paycheck recently? Seriously how much of your paycheck is taken out due to the CT State Income Tax? Do you look around & see any value for the amount of money that is coming out of your family’s paychecks each pay-period?

It’s been 25 years ago that elected officials like Eric who lied to us about the tax remaining small & being only temporary forced this tax upon us…

Did you watch or actually attend the Tax Protest Rally at the capitol back then?

Poll – 25 Years CT Income Taxes

Quick poll – check all that apply

This is the 25th anniversary year of the CT State Income Tax that the Democrat Majority in the General Assembly put into place. We were told that the Income Tax would be "Temporary" & remain at the "same low rate" in exchange our Sales Tax was lowered & would also remain at the "new lower rate". These Promises have been broken Repeatedly by the career politicians many who have been in elected offices for over 30 years. Do you feel that our elected officials have Lost Touch with the People & Do Not Care that they are Harming Our Families with these Increases in Taxes & Cutting of Human Services?

Yes I feel that they have lost touch
Yes My Family has been harmed by the cuts in services
Yes I lost my job because the company left the state due to the increased taxes
Yes I lost my job because of state budget cuts
Yes my family has less money to spend because of increased taxes
Yes I feel the elected majority do not care about my family
Yes I feel the elected majority say anything so they can get elected/reelected then break their promises
Yes I feel they break their promises I'm still waiting for our promised $55 refund from 2014
I don't pay taxes
I don't pay attention to politics so I do not know what promises were broken

On the Campaign Trail 2016

This has been a very Hot & Trying Summer Season for All of Us.

While I’ve been out door knocking I’ve been thanked for running, wished good luck & only experienced 2 rude people.

I am enjoying getting to meet people in the district & as I’m out door knocking & collecting signatures.
I’m running into some people who I’ve not seen in a long time since our children are grown.

The down side of being out campaigning so far has been the weather – this heat is crazy to be out walking in.
I was also a magnet for those small yellow & black striped bees. I was stung at the concert on the green in Windsor last night. I was going to try to ignore it but even with ice it was swelling so I had to go limping off the town green needing assistance to carry my chairs & little cooler back to the car.

So today I won’t be out walking around I’m feeling a little better but my knee still hurts as I’m walking this morning getting ready for the day, most of the swelling has gone down but it’s still red & sore.

This weekend I will start typing up some of the discussions & questions that I’ve been asked by people that I’ve been meeting. I may possibly do a video response to a couple of them if I’m able to get the problem with the mic figured out.

#HadEnough yet? Mileage Gas Tax IS Coming!

Hello Friends & Family both Near & Far;

Have you #HadEnough yet?

MalloysMess remember that no more taxes promise

I need your assistance to help STOP #MalloysMess with your word of mouth spreading the news about this new invasion into our families wallets!
My campaign is small compared to the goliath of the democrat machine that my opponent Eric Coleman has both in manpower & cash available to spend.

But we must not quit just because the odds are great & the fight is rough – I’m not a quitter & neither are you!
We must All do our part working together to Fight the Good Fight. Tooth & Nail, Leaving It All On the Battlefield,

Gov. Malloy has thrown his support behind the Mileage Tax.

This is a perfect opportunity for those of you who are writers to send letters to the editor and social media posts & memes stating that you oppose the enactment of this tax. We must educate our friends & neighbors & coworkers about what is going to happen to us

This not only is a new tax but also is an example of government being able to monitor its residents every move via the gps recording your every trip to the store, classes for your children & your friends & family around the state & country.

We MUST Defeat the democrats this November otherwise this tax WILL Go In Place!
As you drive around the rest of this week I challenge you to think about how much It Will Cost You once this new tax is put into place. Every trip to & from work, to the store for food or parts for the DIY project or trips to pick up the children to & from games & practices, to church …
EVERY TRIP Taxed by the Mile… Dannel & the Democrats will know where you’ve gone the route you took to get there & that is in addition to the nation’s 3rd highest gas tax in the nation!!!

We are losing our freedoms daily & we MUST not sit home crumbling over dinner, we MUST Stand Up & Say NO MORE!
We MUST Vote out the #TaxingTyranny

I NEED Your Help TODAY
to Spread the Word,
to Donate what you can afford to the campaign
to Door Knock
to Call your friends & family
to Volunteer to work with the campaigns

Busy Busy Busy

Haven’t posted an update in awhile because I’ve been busy.

While I’ve been busy around & about knocking doors & attending community & commission meetings & events…

The Elected Officials have been quite busy as well, working on ways to raise our taxes!

A Taxation Q What is Theft Correct

On July 1st a slew of new laws & taxes were put in place
The costs for purchasing just about everything has gone up nationwide but then on top of that the CT taxes did too!

#ThanksMalloy & thanks to the members of the majority party #DemocratsRaisingTaxesAgain our families suffer.

wantedtaxingtyrants1_1_original

The Republicans offered a budget that would have cut spending but kept the services needed for our families but the democrats in the capitol wanted nothing to do with the republican budget…

When you see Eric Coleman & Brandon McGee & David Baram & Doug McCrory walking around in the 2nd District; ask them why they refused to save the public taxpayers money by reducing the amount of the CEP Funding?

Ask them why; if there is no one else running against them on the CT GOP side, did they not agree to eliminate the CEP Grant entirely?

Check out the bottom of page 8 for the amount of our taxes going to their campaigns http://www.ct.gov/seec/lib/seec/2016ga/cep_overview_2016_final.pdf

I mean really why does Eric Coleman need $95,710.00 thousand dollars to run his campaign?
Why do our state reps need $28,150.00 if they have CT GOP opposition or $8,445.00 if they have no one running against them?
Really if they are the ONLY person on the ballot they still get to party with our tax money to the tune of $8,445.00!

Yet they raise our taxes while cutting the services that are needed so they can party?
Is that fair? Hhhmm you know there are some people’s whose whole mortgage is $90k in Hartford,
yet they get to blow that money for some fun for their friends during election years???…

Think about that the next time you’re at the store buying groceries & can’t afford to buy as much as last month or last year.

Call me when you have #HadEnough
641-715-3900 ext 327977# it’s a 24-7 voicemail so call anytime

We’ll be out door knocking & collecting Petition signatures over the next few days.
If you would like to join us be certain to call & let us know where you’re at so we can arrange to swing by.
Theresa would love to meet your neighbors so she can talk about why she is running for office.
