Perhaps they\u2019d prefer to call it a \u201cwages tax\u201d or a \u201cpayroll tax.\u201d Regardless, Gov. Chris Sununu appropriately condemned it as an income tax when he vetoed the measure in May of 2019.<\/p>\n<p>Voter rejection of this tax scheme has clearly popped in Senate Democrats\u2019 internal polling so they\u2019ve launched a dishonest 11th hour counterstrike. Sen. Dan Feltes, who authored SB1, trails Sununu badly in the race for governor and Democrats fear he could take the Democratic state Senate down with him.<\/p>\n<p>What makes the Democrats\u2019 dishonest income tax denial so cynical is that they in turn falsely accuse their Republican opponents of lying.<\/p>\n<p>For example, in his income tax denial, Sen. Tom Sherman (District 24) claimed his opponent, Republican Louis Garguilo, is spreading \u201clies and disinformation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve never voted for an income tax and I never will,\u201d Sherman tweeted, deceptively.<\/p>\n<p>Democrat Sens. Jon Morgan (District 23), Kevin Cavanaugh (District 16), Melanie Levesque (District 12), and Shannon Chandley (District 11) all voted for the income tax. Each faces a strenuous challenge from a Republican candidate who has taken \u201cThe Pledge\u201d to oppose a broadbased sales or income tax.<\/p>\n<p>The most flagrantly dishonest variation of the income tax denial comes from Sen. Jeanne Dietsch (District 9). This week she tweeted, \u201cI will not support any broad based income taxes.\u201d Not only did Dietsch vote for the SB1 income tax, she also sponsored a separate measure to impose a 6.2% tax on income above $132,900.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Know this going into the voting booth: Every Democrat in the state Senate voted for an income tax. They\u2019re simply trying to fool voters by calling it something different.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>By the way, voters should be concerned about more than an income tax. As Republican Sen. Jeb Bradley said on my HynesSite DecisionMakers podcast this week, \u201cgoing the way some people want to go \u2014 an income tax, possibly a sales tax, even the House voted for a capital gains tax last year, higher business taxes, that\u2019s the wrong way to go if we want to be competitive.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bradley\u2019s main concern is that all the tax increases proposed by the Democrats will degrade the Granite State\u2019s competitiveness and ruin the New Hampshire Advantage.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The worst new tax idea of the lot belongs again to Sen. Dietsch.<\/strong><br \/>\nLast week in the Keene Sentinel she called for increasing property taxes on homeowners in towns she says are \u201cunderpaying\u201d to fund education in other property-poor communities.<\/p>\n<p>Homeowners in property-rich, high-income Bedford would pay significantly higher property taxes under the Dietsch plan. Oh yeah, Dietsch represents Bedford in the Senate.<br \/>\n<strong>If you live in Bedford, a vote for Jeanne Dietsch is a vote for higher property taxes.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The choice for state Senate in every district across New Hampshire is just as simple.<br \/>\n<strong>If you want higher taxes, vote for the Democratic candidate. If you want lower taxes, for the Republican.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s something to be said about earnest progressives who passionately advocate for higher taxes and bigger government. This is not that.<br \/>\n<strong>The current crop of Democratic state Senators voted for an income tax.<br \/>\nNow they\u2019re denying it in hopes voters don\u2019t learn the truth before Tuesday\u2019s election.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Patrick Hynes is the president of Hynes Communications.
