The proposed Fiscal Year 2023 budget includes $1.0 million in one-time funding for environmental sustainability initiatives. I oppose that funding. The premise of taxation is that the Government takes someone’s money away from them under threat of imprisonment. It is justified only to satisfy an urgent need to promote the common good. It is not to be done for nice-to-have or marginal projects. This expenditure does not rise to that level of urgency. Cut this line and reduce taxes accordingly.
