2 dollar note

My fundraising appeal to the 1,100 donors who contributed to the hiring of an attorney to challenge the Red Plan in court have been responding to this election as well. They may even be able to match the union dues being applied to DFL endorsed school board candidates.

Not all our contributors are flush with money. I opened this note in which had been placed two one dollar bills. It humbled me when I remembered my suggestion that taxes are probably the key to a fix for our schools. As former Representative, and my campaign Chairman, Mike Jaros, tells anyone who will listen – property taxes are “regressive” and fall harder on the poor and and folks with “fixed incomes.”
