Senator George Voinovich (R-OH) joined his voice with other Republicans who are seeking to re-evaluate plans to pass additional new tax cuts after Hurricane Katrina. Voinovich told reporters at a press conference this afternoon he believed the government needed more money to pay all of its priorities and obligations and because of that hoped "we won't hear any more about making tax cuts permanent." While Voinovich did not call for specific tax increases, his decision to speak out against the accepted and irrational GOP policy of "starving the beast" through tax cuts at any time shows great vision and leadership. Let's hope other in Congress, Democrats and Republicans, follow his lead.
