RSCC’s TABOR Hearing Press Release

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Republican Study Committee of Colorado
October 15, 2009, http://rscc.us/

RSCC to Hold Hearing On TABOR

(Denver) On October 23, the Republican Study Committee of Colorado (RSCC) will host a hearing on Colorado’s Taxpayer’s Bill of Rights (TABOR) with many of the leading experts, including Dr. Barry Poulson (CU and Independence Institute), Douglas Bruce (author of TABOR and tax-reducation advocate), and Jonathan Williams (director of the Tax and Fiscal Policy Task Force for the American Legislative Exchange Council).

Discussion topics will include TABOR’s potential role in Colorado’s economic recovery, the constitutional nature of the measure, the significant benefits it accords the people of Colorado, and a report on the legislature’s Commission on Long-Term Fiscal Stability.

“TABOR has been good for the citizens of Colorado”, said RSCC Chairman, Senator Kevin Lundberg. “This hearing should put those facts on the table and they should help inform members of the legislature for the session that starts next January.“

The RSCC currently has 29 legislative members who are dedicated to a limited and Constitutional role for civil government, free markets and free commerce.

The hearing is open to the public, and will be held at the State Capitol in the Old Supreme Court Chambers. The morning session will take place from 9:00 – 12:00, with the afternoon session from 1:00 – 4:00.
