We believe that families and job providers know how to spend their hard-earned money much better than politicians and bureaucrats in Lansing or Washington, D.C. ever could and they should be allowed to keep more of it.
Over the last three years, Michigan’s economy has led the nation, ranking as the top state in the country in terms of economic comebacks. That comeback has led to a budget surplus spurred on by billions in additional income tax collections by the state Treasury in no small thanks to the 286,000 new private sector jobs created.
We support efforts by lawmakers and Governor Snyder to use this surplus wisely and reduce the tax burden faced by Michigan families.
We fundamentally believe that civic institutions, including our churches, businesses, families and charities are more important to the fabric of our state and nation than our governments ever could be. Forcing others to do our caring for us through the tax code cheapens our humanity.
We believe in bottom-up, person-to-person caring, not the top-down, artificial “compassion” of big government.
The Michigan Freedom Fund believes that every child should have equal access to opportunity in education regardless of their race or their zip code and applaud those over the last three and a half years who have taken the steps to increase educational opportunity and funding by over $1 Billion dollars.
We also believe that governments that collect billions of tax dollars annually for schools and education programs have a fundamental responsibility to provide students—and parents—a high-quality return for that investment at both the state and local level.
When our government leaders fail our children they fail us all, and we are on guard to hold them accountable.
