Kristi Noem, I oppose raising taxes on South Dakota families and small business owners VIDEO


Kristi supports repealing the unfair death tax. Congresswoman Herseth Sandlin doesn't think we can "afford it."

Herseth Sandlin Admits to Supporting Tax Increases While Noem Opposes Higher Taxes.

SIOUX FALLS – Kristi Noem, candidate for South Dakota’s lone congressional seat today, reiterated her opposition to tax increases while Congresswoman Herseth Sandlin showed her true colors 14 days out from the election and admitted to supporting higher taxes on South Dakota families, small businesses and seniors.
The Noem campaign also released a video showing the clear difference between the candidates on the issue of the death tax.

“I have consistently said I oppose raising taxes on South Dakota families and small business owners during this economic downturn. The small business owners I speak with on the campaign trail tell me they need certainty when it comes to tax and regulatory policy. Now isn’t the time for higher taxes and more regulation,” said Noem.

In an October 18, 2010 interview with the Rapid City Journal, Congresswoman Herseth Sandlin admitted to supporting tax increases on South Dakota families and small businesses.

“While Noem supports making all the Bush-era tax cuts permanent, Herseth Sandlin prefers letting the tax cuts for individuals earning more than $250,000 a year expire after a one- or two-year extension. Noem supports ending the estate tax permanently; Herseth Sandlin said that would be too expensive.”

Congresswoman Herseth Sandlin also divulged that she would be open to higher taxes on South Dakota seniors dependent on Social Security.

“While Noem ruled out any tax increases for entitlements, Herseth Sandlin said she was open to considering a change in the Social Security tax, such as making high-income individuals contribute more to Social Security.”
