Issue Position: Senior Citizens

Issue Position

Date: Jan. 1, 2016

The State of Michigan owes a great deal of thanks to our senior citizens, who built this state through their hard work. Unfortunately, Governor Snyder and Republicans in the State Legislature have chosen to balance the budget on the backs of our seniors. Senior pensions are now taxed, for the first time in Michigan's history. It is wrong to tax the fixed incomes of Michigan's seniors while we give large tax cuts to corporations. I will fight to repeal the pension tax and work hard every day to ensure seniors in Michigan receive the respect they have earned.
