Harry Teague

Democratic Rep. Harry Teague, in a close race with former Republican Congressman Steve Pearce, has signaled his support for extending the Bush tax cuts for the highest-earning Americans. Teague this week signed a letter to Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, D-Cali., along with 31 other conservative Democrats, expressing their opposition to letting tax breaks for the wealthy expire on time. “In recent weeks, we have heard from a diverse spectrum of economists, small business owners, and families who have voiced concerns that raising any taxes right now could negatively impact economic growth,” Rep. Melissa Bean, D-Ill., wrote in the letter Teague co-signed with Teague. Read more here:
