Quattrocchi predicts Democrats will make Rain Tax permanent

Republican Assembly candidate Patricia Quattrocchi has pledged not to vote for any bills that would raise taxes if she unseats incumbents James Kennedy (D-Rahway) and Linda Carter (D-Plainfield) in the heavily-Democratic 22nd district.

Quattrocchi, a former Mayor of Garwood, is predicting that Kennedy and Carter will vote to make the Rain Tax permanent if they get re-elected.

“If the Democrats continue to hold the majority in the assembly I believe that implementing this “Rain Tax” will become mandatory sometime in 2020,” said Quattrocchi.  “Just as the incumbents did in January 2019 by voting yes on this travesty of a law Carter and Kennedy will also vote yes when the bill is amended.”
