Just in>

Missouri City, Texas – March 12, 2010 - Kevin Tunstall, a local healthcare business owner and tax reform advocate, has announced his candidacy for the Missouri City council position 2 at large race. He was the only area candidate in 2008 to receive an endorsement from the Ron Paul presidential campaign and he has remained very active in local political issues over the years.

When asked why he is again seeking to serve the voters of Missouri City, Tunstall noted that the current administration has continued to raise taxes and bond debt over the years and have little to show for it. “They hire lobbyist with our tax dollars, who then act in opposition to the interests of our local businesses and families by opposing appraisal and property tax rate reforms”, Tunstall said.

“Last week the mayor pulled a ballot initiative that would have given the voters of Missouri City the option to implement a universal homestead exemption which they currently are denied. Missouri City is one of the few cities in the area that does not offer this to its residents. Why would the mayor or any city official first offer the public this choice and then remove it, all within a month or two?”

“It’s time for true fiscal responsibility and prudent actions in these tough times and to remember who placed us in office. We have a diverse and vibrant community and we need a clear direction as well as new leadership to insure a bright future”, responded Tunstall.
