LOBBY OMAHA CITY COUNCILMAN MULLIGAN

Oh, for the Good Old Days! The Good Old Days in District 7 on the Omaha City Council. The Good Old Days when Councilman Chuck Sigerson voted for taxpayer interests, closely scrutinizing proposed increases in taxes and spending, then voted as a fiscal conservative. Yes, those were the Good Old Days in District 7. His successor, Tom Mulligan, has voted wrong on most fiscal issues since his appointment several months ago. Now, he takes the side of the police union and pledges to vote for an overly generous contract that will necessitate higher taxes. He sides with Mayor Suttle on a wasteful budget that raises the property tax and wheel tax and implements a new restaurant, bar, and catering tax. Mulligan apparently is a Republican but appears to be a Republican In Name Only (RINO). If he votes for the police union contract and Suttle budget, we will deposit him in our NTF Rino Stockade, along with Clare Duda, the RINO Douglas County Commissioner who voted to raise our property tax rates this year. You can lobby Tom Mulligan to vote FOR taxpayers and AGAINST our liberal Mayor on these 2 issues. Call him today at: 444-5526 or email him at tmulligan@ci.omaha.ne.us. Please help us herd a RINO in the right direction!
