The case for Corbett's stand
While Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Corbett has had a great first six months in office, many opportunities and challenges lie ahead.
Today's Philadelphia Inquirer features the following op-ed by ATR director of state affairs Patrick Gleason:
Gov. Corbett's greatest success in his first six months in office was closing a more than $4 billion budget gap without further soaking the taxpayers of Pennsylvania, who already contend with the nation's 10th-highest state and local tax burden.
Americans for Tax Reform's Taxpayer Protection Pledge, which Corbett signed, is often denounced as too "rigid," and the governor has been criticized for signing it.
