20th District House candidate Julia Allen (above center) signed the Americans for Tax Reform (ATR) Tax Pledge last month at GOP Hawaii headquarters. I am a supporter of ATR and the pledge which requires that signees vow not to raise or create new taxes while they are in office. Marian Grey (left) chair of the 17th district and I were Ms. Allen's tax pledge witnesses. The complete text of the tax pledge can be read at the ATR website. Julia Allen is a Republican candidate running for office against incumbent House Speaker Calvin Say.
