Barbara has served in the state legislature since 1996. She served 3 terms in the Assembly and then was elected to the Senate in 2002 and has served 2 terms. She is running for reelection in State Senate District 8. If you examine Barbara’s Legislative report card from NPRI you will find that she is one of only 4 state senators with a conservative record in the 2009 legislative session. The other 17 are not conservative. We need to keep Barbara in the Senate and elect a few more conservatives to help her move the agenda to more fiscal conservatism. During 2003, Barbara voted against the Gross Receipts Tax. In 2009, she voted against tax increases that were vetoed by the Governor but overridden in both the Assembly and the Senate. Barbara opposed the sales tax hike that the Democratic majority pushed through during the 2009 Legislative session. Again, in the special session of 2010, Barbara voted against the tax and fee increases. Barbara will work for SPENDING reform not increasing taxes and fees to businesses and individuals. For this reason, we endorse Barbara CEGAVSKE for Senate District 8. For more information on Barbara, you may go to her website: Barbara Cegavske.
