The NC GOP is raising gas tax to the tune of $1.2 billion dollars at a cost of over $200 for the average NC driver.

Back in 2013 most Republicans ran on talking points of lower taxes—and, in fact, they have as long as your adjusted gross income in more than $600,000 a year.

Interestingly, North Carolina already has the 6th highest gas tax in the nation.

Other taxes the #NCGOP is pushing: taxing unearned bank mortgage reductions.  If they bank was willing to forgive a certain amount of your home loan – a 2007 law made that relief nontaxable; NC now wants to change that.

They also want to do away with tuition expense deductions—you can thank Sen. Bob Rucho and former Budget Director, Art Pope for that one.

If you’d like to show Bob your appreciation for raising your tax – below is his #NCGA contact information.
