How rare it is to see government wanting to return the peoples' money, instead of trying to hang on to all the money and power they can. Go Gov. Parson!

Vernon Taylor

The House Minority Leader apparently feels that a senior making $20,000, or a single mother of two making $35,000 is wealthy. This is the thought process of the Democrat Party.

Max DeYoung

Excess money from tax revenue is a clear indicator that taxes are excessive and should be returned to the people that paid those taxes, not to people with their hands out.

Adam

How about using that money for our schools? Make them safer with metal detectors? Pay our teachers more? More supplies so teachers don't have to spend their own money on it?

Jack L

Let`s spend some of that money on school security, which we all agree we need.

Adam

I don't mind paying taxes at the rate we have now as long as our elected officials can find a way to use it wisely

We have to commute to work, approximately 70 miles every day. We fill up once a week, and the cost has risen from an average of $36.50 before the Iran war, to now $55.00 each week. We now have to budget more for gas than we did. And there is still nothing to show for any of this pointless conflic

Max

So, you support Iran? Well, I support America.

Im driving about 81.6 miles a day to get my son to daycare and then myself to work. Car averages 21 mpg and requires minimum 91 octane fuel. $70 twice a week plus what my husband spends in fuel for just traveling back and forth to work and home. Keeping son home 2 days from daycare to save on fuel.

You need a more fuel-efficient car.

While no one enjoys paying more $ gas is cheap for what you get.

I wish puppet Biden did not drain the strategic petroleum reserve in a failed political scheme, much like his unconstitutional student loan forgiveness, to buy votes. The oil pipelines to Canada, that Biden stopped, would be handy about now too. Voting for future Democrats will be very limited.

Max

Trump had just refilled it, after Obama drained it down to nothing.

Steve Baumann

Far bigger issues than fuel prices

A new tax is not the answer to the city's budget problems. City leaders need to live within your means, like everyone else. Vote NO on the new taxes.

Steve Baumann

We already pay enough in taxes. The City needs to check it's priorities and pull funding from programs that truly are not conductive to the day to day lives of the general tax paying citizen. Focus on the core competencies, not liberal dream programs.

Fred

Almost as bad an idea as replacing income taxes with higher sales taxes!

Max

You finally got one right. Did you have help?

Zaos Gonzolez

Your own safety is your own responsibility.
