VOTER ALERT

Marylanders Beware of National and State Republicans Making Empty Promises

Maryland Citizens Urged to Read the Fine Print in Republican Pledges that Actually Hurt Middle Class Families

Annapolis, MD (September 23, 2010) - Maryland GOP leaders showed again today that they are all talk and no action with a repackaged "pledge" from Newt Gingrich's failed experiment.

For the past year 2 years, Republicans have accomplished nothing but the art of criticism. Now that they lack a plan they are pledging to to implement the same failed Bush-era Republican economic policies that helped cause the economic crisis, only to leave middle class families to fend for themselves.

The GOP promises to bring back jobs but includes no plan to do so. The GOP's only proposal to create jobs has already been approved. The GOP promises to cut taxes and spending yet fails to mention which programs will be cut or how they will pay for tax cuts.

This pledge is nothing but a set of empty campaign promises intended to distract Maryland voters from the real issues they are facing. Voters want action not empty promises. Marylanders deserve leaders who have a plan to move forward not backward.

"Would urge Marylanders to read the fine print in any GOP or Ehrlich plan," said Maryland Democratic Party Executive Director Travis Tazelaar. "The last plan Bob Ehrlich pushed through led to $3 billion in hidden taxes and fees and historic increases in state spending."
