VOTE FRAUD?

 

Leftwing Heartland Workers Center, supposedly nonprofit, is distributing candidate voting information in South and North Omaha, probably intended to defeat Rep. Don Bacon.  The center targets demographic groups leaning Socialist Democrat.  Because it focuses on precincts with many immigrants, a possibility that it will help illegal aliens vote. Amazingly, the City of Omaha budget has funded this center.   We must find a state senator to introduce a bill to prohibit nonprofits from engaging in partisan political activities anathema to taxpayers.

BETTER CANDIDATE

 

Dist. 31 taxpayers have suffered for 8 years from State Sen. Rick Kolowski voting the leftist teachers’ union line at the Legislature.  Taxpayers now have the opportunity to vote for Rich Pahls, a former state senator and city councilman, someone who actually will sit down with you and listen to your suggestions, complaints, etc. Pahls as a council member has championed taxpayers with his ideas for garbage collection, infrastructure, etc.  His opponent is a Kolowski clone, an active teachers’ union member who will block tax relief.

GOOD RIDDANCE TO DUDA

 

Double good riddance to Clare Duda!  RINO Douglas County Commissioner Duda took a parting shot at taxpayers by endorsing Socialist Democrat Jo Giles instead of conservative Republican Mike Friend as his successor.  Friend crushed Duda in the primary, mainly owing to Duda enriching himself with huge salary votes and tax hike votes.  Friend, a fiscal conservative and champion of taxpayers while a state senator, will be a valuable ally to county taxpayers in budgetary matters coming before the board.  Our NE Taxpayers for Freedom group solidly supports him & has provided volunteers.

FLAGRANT ABUSE OF TAX $$

 

Although the contract stipulated only an annual salary increase matching the CPI for the Papio NRD Gen. Manager, the following 8 NRD Board members generously voted him a 6% hike, about $8,532: Begley, Bradley, Conley, Japp, McCormick, Sopinski, Tesar, & Thompson.  Voting against this outrageous increase and with taxpayers were Board members Gruenewald & Wiese.  Bradley & Tesar face re-election Nov. 3.  Don’t vote for them.

OUR WORST ENEMY

 

The Red China economic recovery from COVID-19 sees consumers flooding shopping malls and car dealerships.  Its economic growth has grown by 4.9% over 2019.  Its factories are booming, production rising by 5.8%, thanks to orders for face masks & other medical supplies desperately needed in Europe & North America.  Chinese exporters are grabbing markets from U.S. companies.  Meanwhile, the U.S. economy has shrunk by 4.3%.  Anyone who still believes that this pandemic was an accident is a total fool!  The Chicoms are our #1 enemy.

OUR CHAMPION

 


President Trump has issued an executive order that would remove job security from tens of thousands of federal civil servants. His directive strips civil service protections from employees whose work involves policymaking, allowing their dismissal with little recourse.  This action the President deemed necessary, because leftist entrenched bureaucrats continually delay and hinder implementation of his executive orders to reform the federal government & drain the D.C. swamp.  Urge your congressman to support this measure & email netaxpayers@gmail.com to join our NE Taxpayers President Watch Project.

ONE GREAT CANDIDATE

Too often conservative taxpayers pay little attention to conservative candidates running for lesser offices, e.g., natural resource district (NRD) boards, community college boards. These boards levy property taxes, so it is crucial that we elect/re-elect fiscally conservative individuals. NE Taxpayers for Freedom highly recommends a vote for Christian Mirch for Dist. 3 NRD. He is an accomplished professional with a sterling background in law and law enforcement. His legal acumen will serve him well to curtail reckless NRD spending on unnecessary dams that mostly benefit developers. Email mail.com for our NTF Voting Guide.

BIDEN MEANS HIGHER TAXES

 

Joe Biden would raise income taxes on those with incomes over $400,000, severely curtailing monies invested in our economy.  He would raise all individual and corporate income, capital gains, & payroll taxes.  The proposal imposes a 12.45% Social Security payroll tax on additional income.  His tax plan would repeal the 2017 Trump tax reductions.  The estate tax exemption would drop by about 50%.  The Tax Foundation declares his plan would reduce our gross domestic product.  Protect your savings & income!  Vote Trump!

A BETTER ALTERNATIVE

 

The Omaha City Council will vote Tue. on a new recycling contract.  Recycling costs are rising sharply, because most overseas countries now refuse to accept recyclables, fearing contamination.  Now is the time for Mayor Stothert & council members to realize that new technology is bringing almost pollution-free incinerators online in communities worldwide.  No more recyclables to the landfill or recycling dumps.  Incinerators will burn all garbage & yard waste, producing energy to provide power to thousands of Omaha homes & businesses.  Lobby your city council member today to vote for only a short recycling contract!  Email netaxpayers@gmail.com to join our NTF City Watch Proj

STOP CRITICIZING

 

“Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who’s the fairest of them all?”  This quote was from the Witch in Snow White, but it also describes Sen. Ben Sasse, who apparently believes he is the fairest of all by trashing Pres. Trump.  Sasse’s overflowing vanity only impedes Trump re-election chances.  Fighting between conservative officeholders does not help the conservative cause.  Hopefully, other conservative senators will take Sen. Sasse aside and counsel him to discontinue his diatribes against Pres. Trump.
