Former Jacksonville Sheriff John Rutherford, frontrunner in the race for the GOP nomination in Florida’s 4th Congressional District, signed the Americans for Tax Reform “Taxpayer Protection Pledge” Monday.
The pledge is a written commitment to the citizens of Florida and to the American people to oppose all tax increases, claims ATR.
Grover Norquist, longtime head of Americans for Tax Reform, lauds Rutherford’s stance.
“We are ecstatic about Rutherford’s commitment to the taxpayers of Florida. I challenge all candidates for Florida’s 4th Congressional District to make the same commitment to taxpayers by signing the Taxpayer Protection Pledge today,” said Norquist.

This is laughable. Rutherford in on record supporint a tax hike to make sure his million dollar pension and the broken pension system in Duval County remains broken and lucrative for him. See this:
