Paul J. Franco has won the endorsement of CLT’s 2 ½ Political Action Committee in his election bid for State Senator from the First Worcester District.
CLT’S 2 ½ PAC, the political arm of Citizens for Limited Taxation, was originally created to support candidates who would defend Proposition 2 ½ in the State Legislature. It now endorses candidates who support taxpayers on a variety of issues, and uses the CLT Legislative rating to identify pro-taxpayer legislators.
Francis J. Faulkner, executive director of the PAC, said the group endorsed Franco based on his strong consistent support for tax limitation. “We need to put people like Paul Franco in the State Senate to continue the fight for the income tax rollback and to block any attempt to impose new taxes. Mr. Franco has taken the taxpayer protection pledge. This pledge asks candidates to ‘oppose and vote against any and all efforts to increase taxes’. Signing the pledge means he is serious about not raising taxes and will focus instead on better management of state revenues.”
In serving the best interests of the taxpayers and the economy, we urge the voters of the First Worcester District to elect Paul J. Franco to the State Senate on November 4th
