Hilleary Favors Colorado-Style Taxpayer Protections
In response to the item below regarding Republican gubernatorial candidate Jim Henry endorsing the concept of a Taxpayer's Bill of Rights for Tennessee similar to Colorado's. I received an email from Frank Cagle, a spokesman for the Van Hilleary for Governor campaign, indicating that Hilleary "absolutely favors the Colorado plan and expects to push it hard against Bredesen in the general election." Cagle says such a proposal "will be part of a package of taxpayer protections" Hilleary plans to offer.
