Petition Launched For 8th District Residents To Support Efforts
Today Patrick Hope signed onto a national effort sponsored by the Progressive Change Campaign Committee in support of the Congressional Progressive Caucus budget. The proposed budget would raise tax rates on those making over $250,000 per year and create new brackets for those making over $1,000,000 a year.
“As a founder of the Virginia Progressive Caucus, I am proud to sign onto the Congressional Progressive Caucus budget,” Hope said. “Voters in the 8th district deserve to know where candidates will stand on these issues. I hope that all ten candidates in this race will communicate with voters where they stand on important issues like our federal budget. This budget includes a long overdue and much deserved pay raise for our federal workers- a critical issue here in the 8th district.”
