8 FACTS ABOUT BEN MING'S DANGEROUS DEMOCRAT AGENDA

#1. BEN MING WANTS AN INCOME TAX.

As the failed Mayor of Manchester, Joyce Craig overrode the tax cap to increase property taxes. Craig and Ben Ming love higher taxes and won’t hesitate to implement an Income Tax on Granite Staters. Democrats in Concord voted for the income tax on interest and dividends. Ben Ming has not taken the pledge to oppose an income tax and will work with Joyce Craig to implement the income tax on interest and dividends.

#2. BEN MING WANTS A SALES TAX.

Failed Manchester Mayor Joyce Craig overrode the Manchester Tax Cap and proposed a city-wide sales tax in Manchester. Ben Ming and the Democrats did not pledge to oppose an income or sales tax. If Joyce Craig becomes Governor she will force us into a statewide sales tax and her ally Ben Ming will support her all the way.

#3. BEN MING WANTS OPEN BORDERS AND SANCTUARY CITIES.

NH Democrats like Ben Ming oppose securing the northern border and support dangerous sanctuary city policies — creating a magnet for illegal aliens. These policies will lead to higher crime and more drugs coming into our communities and massive impact on taxpayers. The cost in Massachusetts of this policy is over a billion dollars and counting.

#4. BEN MING WANTS DRIVER'S LICENSES FOR ILLEGAL ALIENS.

Democrats in Concord believe illegal aliens should have driver's licenses which creates more incentives for illegals to come to N.H. and may even enable them to vote.

#5. BEN MING'S POLICIES WILL LEAD TO MORE CRIME.

Failed Mayor Joyce Craig turned Manchester from a prosperous and safe city, into a hub for violent crime, homelessness and drug abuse. Ben Ming and the Democrats will bring the vision of “Craigville” to the rest of the state, turning the Granite State into a refuge for violent criminals and homelessness.

#6. BEN MING'S POLICIES WILL LEAD TO PRICES.

Ben Ming and the Democrats' policies of more business regulation and higher business taxes will drive up the cost of goods and services.

#7. BEN MING'S POLICIES WILL DRIVE UP HOUSING COSTS.

Purchasing a home or renting an apartment will be more expensive under Joyce Craig and Ben Ming. Ben Ming and the Democrats will increase unnecessary red tape and regulations, impose a “green energy tax,” and slow construction of much-needed affordable housing options.

#8. BEN MING WILL SUPPORT A NEW GREEN ENERGY TAX.

Leading NH Democrats support a New Hampshire Green New Deal driving up energy, transportation, and housing costs.
