Colorado taxpayers have a bill of rights in our State Constitution!
Of course, greedy politicians are doing everything they can to steal more of our money, but thanks to the Colorado Taxpayer’s Bill of Rights (TABOR), we are able to restrain the growth of government.
TABOR requires voter approval for new taxes, limits the growth of government and refunds our tax money if the government collects too much.
In this video, Brandon discusses TABOR and explains how valuable it is for the people of Colorado.
