GOP Calls on Egolf to Release Tax Returns

Yesterday the Republican Party of New Mexico called on State Representative Brian Egolf (D-Santa Fe) to release his tax returns and let his Occupy friends see if he pays his "fair share" on his investment income derived from big corporations and Wall Street, or whether he pays the 15 percent Egolf's friends have slammed Republicans for.
The GOP says Egolf inherited his wealth from oil and gas corporate earnings and lives in a Santa Fe mansion and has frequently protested with the "99%" crowd.
"It's disappointing that Democrats are so determined to divide New Mexicans. But for a wealthy trust funder like Brian Egolf to act like he's part of the "Occupy Movement" is hysterical. Rep. Egolf has decided to make class warfare his signature issue, so New Mexicans deserve to see whether Brian Egolf is paying what his liberal friends define as his 'fair share' of taxes," said Republican Party of New Mexico executive director Bryan Watkins.
Watkins said Egolf preached about protecting minority voting rights, while simultaneously pushing to increase the Anglo percentage of his own district to protect himself from a Democratic primary challenge.
