Another Tax Increase for ABQ

Check out this stealth tax increase. The wishful thinkers now have a desire named streetcar; and you will be paying for it. If my understanding is correct, this gross receipts tax increase will prevent a scheduled one-quarter of one percent tax reduction that was scheduled to take place because of a sunset clause in the prior ordinance. And, of course, this new ordinance does not have a sunset clause -- the tax increase is permanent.

There is still time to stop it. Call your councilor.
