IFF criticizes Otter’s 2017 plans

Idaho Freedom Foundation President Wayne Hoffman issued the following statement Monday following Gov. Butch Otter’s State of the State address in the Capitol: 

“Idahoans deserve the conservative government they voted for. The governor’s budget doesn’t deliver on that. His budget grows government by nearly 9 percent and offers zero tax relief. Idahoans are watching their paychecks shrink and their cost of living go up. The Freedom Foundation will work with lawmakers over the coming weeks and months to educate them on how they can deliver a true conservative budget, one that respects the taxpayer and provides up to $200 million in grocery and income tax relief.” 

Question: Do you agree/disagree with Wayne Hoffman?
