Americans for Tax Reform recognizes the Hawaii incumbents and candidates who have taken the Taxpayer Protection Pledge ahead of the August 11 primary election. The Pledge is a written commitment to hardworking Hawaii taxpayers and to the American people to “oppose and vote against any and all efforts to increase taxes.”
“By signing The Pledge to the voters, these candidates and incumbents demonstrate that they will safeguard Hawaii taxpayers from higher taxes,” said Grover Norquist, President of Americans for Tax Reform.
“Pledge signers understand that government should be reformed in a way so that it spends and takes less taxpayer dollars, and will oppose tax increases that prolong failures of the past.”
ATR will be updating this list daily, as we approach the August 11 primary. Candidates can still make this important commitment to voters today by visiting: www.atr.org/take-the-pledge
