Senator Tony Strickland’s Statement on Tax Day

(Sacramento, CA) – “Today’s tax day is a grave reminder to all Californians that we are taxed to the max. Democrats are continually using hardworking California families as an ATM machine, which is doing nothing to help boost California’s economy.”

“If California’s economy is ever going to bounce back, we need to stop raising taxes. There’s a reason why we have an ongoing budget problem and it’s because people are fleeing the state because they’re being over-taxed.”

“I’m hopeful we can reform California so that hardworking families are no longer forced to make the choice between a gallon of milk and a gallon of gas. I will do everything I can to oppose more taxes and will help to ensure that taxpayer dollars are spent as wisely and efficiently as possible.”
