House Democrat Introduces Legislation for an Income Tax

Remember when Democratic candidates were pledging not to pass an income tax? Well, forget that promise! They now want an income tax to pay for education.

INCOME TAX FOR CHARTER SCHOOLS (2013-H-0191-L)
Title: establishing a one percent personal income tax to fund chartered public schools. Sponsors: (Prime) Peter Sullivan

Education Tax Credits (2013-H-0190-L) Title: relative to education tax credits Sponsor: (Prime) Peter Sullivan

Rep. Sullivan is a Democrat who voted against the original education tax credit bill that passed in the last session.  He will likely ask to eliminate education tax credits (LSR 190), if he can't get his income tax (LSR 191). 

57% of New Hampshire voters not only voted against an income tax, but in favor of a Constitutional Amendment to prevent an income tax from ever being enacted. Only days later, the Democrats are already pushing an income tax.

The public sector union officials are backing the Democrats every year, even manning the polls with union members at taxpayer expense. Tuesday was "payback," according to a few public employees.  With taxpayer funded lobbyists, it's hardly surprising.
