What the public needs to always understand is that they have a constitutional guarantee for equal taxation, and what could be more fair than that?” asked Ford. “In our opinion, it has worked for hundreds of years and it needs to be protected for hundreds of years to come.” CLT was founded to oppose and defeat the fourth graduated income tax scheme in 1976 and led the also-successful opposition which defeated the next grad tax proposal on the 1994 ballot. “Several national studies revealed just last week that Massachusetts saw the highest outward migration of population in New England,” said Tuerck. “Massachusetts saw some of the highest rates in the country for population loss. Among the reasons for why these people left was due to taxes. If we want to stop losing people to other tax friendly states, we must first stop raising taxes and then do everything we can to keep them here. Raising the income tax is a good way to accelerate the population loss.” For Advertising with Results, call The Advocate Newspapers at 617-387-2200 or Info@ advocatenews.net Annual Winter Walk scheduled for Feb. 13 at Copley Plaza T he annual Winter Walk, which raises awareness and funds toward ending homelessness in Greater Boston, is set to take place on Sunday, February 13. All participants will start at Copley Plaza at 8:30 a.m. for the check-in followed by a 9 a.m. start. The two-mile walk begins and ends at Copley Plaza.

All participants are encouraged to donate or help raise funds with a registration fee of $100 for adults and $50 for youths and students. Registration for this event provides the opportunity to walk, a warm Winter Walk hat, breakfast, live music, a backpack loaded with information and offers from local organizations, and an opportunity to learn and share together. This year, the Winter Walk supports 10 partner organizations: Boston Health Care for the Homeless Program, Boston Medical Center, Bridge Over Troubled Waters, Brookview House, Common Cathedral, FamilyAid Boston, New England Home and Center for Veterans, Pine Street Inn, St. Francis House and Y2Y Harvard Square along with others who together in solidarity support awareness around the issues surrounding homelessness. The Winter Walk encourages local businesses, clubs, religious groups, families, friends and surrounding communities to create a team to walk. The event is family and dog friendly (dogs can even register and receive a special doggie goodie bag and a fundraising page of their own).
