Senator Seward thinks it's particularly wrong for consumers to be paying so much tax on gas when they're already paying record profits to the big oil companies.

The Legislature simply maintained funding one fiscal year to another.

The senator has spent some of his campaign funds to raise awareness about an important Senate initiative to provide real and genuine property tax relief for the people of his district. At times, it is appropriate to use paid advertising to do that so you can provide a more focused awareness effort.

That way you won't need to pick at anything before lunchtime.
