RAISE TAXES LIKE A DEMOCRAT? Not me. On day one, Joe Biden will raise your federal income taxes. On day two, Senator Jack Reed will approve. Allen Waters for U.S. Senate? I already signed the Americans for Tax Reform Pledge (ATR.ORG) to vote against increasing federal income tax. Every businessperson in Rhode Island should vote Allen Waters for U.S. Senate.
