CITIZENS AGAINST HIGHER TAXES ENDORSES
BRAD OSBORNE FOR LEHIGH COUNTY EXECUTIVE
LEHIGH COUNTY, PA – Citizens Against Higher Taxes endorsed Commissioner Brad Osborne to be the next Lehigh County Executive. Chairman James Broussard issued the follow statement:
“Brad Osborne’s record on taxes is unassailable. Osborne’s leadership on the Lehigh County Board of Commissioners has led to tax cuts in four of the past five years and has returned over $27 million to the taxpayers.
As a plant manager and small business owner, Brad Osborne knows first-hand the burden that high taxes puts on families and local businesses. Osborne understands that lower taxes leads to more jobs and a more vibrant economy, and he has the voting record to prove it. In his years of service for Lehigh County and South Whitehall Township, he has overseen a dozen budgets without a single tax increase.
Taxpayers in Lehigh County have a strong advocate and ally in Brad Osborne. With Osborne as Executive, Lehigh County’s best days are still ahead.”
Citizens Against Higher Taxes works with elected officials and grassroots organizations throughout Pennsylvania to fight against policies that raise taxes and hurt Pennsylvania’s economy.
Osborne thanked Broussard and Citizens Against Higher Taxes for their endorsement. “Dr. Broussard has been a champion for taxpayers throughout Pennsylvania, and I’m honored to have the support of Citizens Against Higher Taxes. I’m proud to stand with Dr. Broussard and our taxpayers throughout Lehigh County.”
