Breaking news. Gov. Pawlenty proposing a 75 cent per pack "FEE" on cigarettes to help balance the budget.
Please contact the Gov. Office and ask them how do they spell the word TAX. That is what it is. It is a tax.
To contact Pawlenty call (651) 296-3391 or (800) 657-3717, e-mail
tim.pawlenty@state.mn.us, or fax (651) 296-2089
Gov. Pawlenty promised not to raise taxes at all. This is a blatant tax increase. This was released at 5:30 pm eastern time.
Action Alert below the fold.
We must contact every national media about this. Pawlenty has the potential to be the replacement king or queen in the next election. We can't let that happen.
If there are any MN-WI-ND-SD-IA Kossacks out there, please contact the local media about this clever release late on a Friday afternoon. Make sure this gets to the media. It will get overlooked if Kossacks don't get on it. Please help!!!!! I am doing what I can too.
Also, post contacts as well to help everyone out. Please utilize your weekend in making sure Pawlenty is a 1-term governor.

Remember Gov. Pawlenty ran in 2002 on a pledge to not raise any taxes.
