JIM ZUPANCIC – FISCAL CONSERVATIVE:
Cutting Taxes, Creating Jobs, Reforming Education and
Utilizing Oregon’s Natural Resources

LOWER TAXES & LESS GOVERNMENT

The difference between me and my opponent is clear, I opposed Measure 30 and its record tax increase, my opponent, Jackie Winters, voted for this tax hike in HB 2152. I believe government should seek efficiencies, reduce wasteful spending, and lower taxes. In Congress I will fight to:

• Make President Bush’s tax cuts permanent;
• Lower income taxes on working families; and
• Eliminate the death tax.

“Zupancic knows that lower taxes help businesses grow.”
- Lance Hazelbaker, Salem business owner.

CREATING JOBS

Small businesses are the core of Oregon’s economy. In Congress, I’ll fight to create a Small Business Job Creation Tax Credit to help create quality, family-wage jobs.

“Creating jobs and putting people back to work is a top priority for Zupancic. That’s why we all should support Jim.”
– Jack Roberts, former GOP candidate for Governor.

REFORMING EDUCATION

I believe quality public education is the backbone of a successful democracy. In Congress, I’ll work to ensure that public education is supported, but controlled and held accountable locally.

“Jim supports local control because teachers and parents working together help children learn.” - Patricia Rust, Clackamas County public school teacher.

UTILIZING OREGON’S NATURAL RESOURCES

I applaud President Bush for his signing the Healthy Forests Restoration Act, which will reduce wildfires while creating jobs. In Congress, I’ll work to pass legislation that wisely utilizes Oregon’s natural resources.
