Robin Ficker on Tax Reform

 

 


Cut sales tax by two cents; give everyone a tax cut

Ficker declared that by cutting the sales tax by two cents, he will be giving $1.7 billion back to Marylanders. That will bring more businesses to the state, which will help offset the loss revenue stream, he said. New business brings in new residents and money for education, he said, adding, if elected, he would be "very business friendly." "My program is to give everyone a tax cut every day," he said.

Fought to limit property tax hikes to rate of inflation

Love him or hate him, Robin Ficker has spent nearly a year gathering 16,000 signatures in an effort to prevent property taxes from skyrocketing in Montgomery County. Ficker has convinced 16,000 residents to sign a charter amendment petition that would prevent the Montgomery Council from raising property taxes--during any given year--beyond the U.S. rate of inflation.
