| Marcus White |
Marcus White, Executive Director, Interfaith Conference of Greater Milwaukee "No one could have predicted that hurricane [Katrina]. Certainly no one predicted that hundreds of evacuees would come as far as Wisconsin. But the ability we had to meet that unanticipated need speaks to the importance of allowing flexibility at the local level. That's the kind of thing that we think would be threatened under TABOR." |
| Rick Gale |
Rick Gale, Firefighter "What elected officials do, particularly in cities, is they try to indicate to the citizens that somehow police and fire will be insulated from cuts - that somehow, that won't happen. Well that's a lie.So at the end of the day, public safety will be eroded as a consequence of the passage of TABOR." |
| Dinah Parker |
Dinah Parker, Economic Support Specialist for Milwaukee County "I feel TABOR would badly impact me, my family, my neighbors by reducing the services that we provide in the Department of Health and Human Services." |
| Bob Haase |
Bob Haase, Serves on the Board of the Wisconsin Alliance for Retired Americans and as a Commissioner for the Milwaukee County Department on Aging "To take everything back to a referendum to the people would be an unwieldy program. It would cause a lot of delay and expense and honestly a cut in service. I don't care if you're buying an automobile or a house, you get what you pay for and the same thing is true of government and taxes." |
| Nou Vang |
Nou Vang, Advocate for the Task Force on Family Violence "I think that when we talk about TABOR we need to look beyond our tax rebate, to look beyond the tax rate. We need to start considering what type of community we want to live in." |
| Jim Price |
Jim Price, Volunteer President of the The Park People of Milwaukee County "This TABOR will be nothing more than a stumbling block to progress. Nothing more than another excuse for our legislators and local representatives to abrogate their responsibilities to us in terms of spending our money wisely on the things we need and want to build a better community." |
| Kelly Mc Mahon |
Kelly Mc Mahon, Kindergarten Teacher "Wisconsin has consistently been on top of the list of educational success in the United States for over the last few decades.However, this success will no longer continue if TABOR is amended into our state's constitution." |
