Look at their vote last Friday on Temporary Tax Relief Act of 2007 (H R 3996 Roll Call 1081) that would do a number of things including revising the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) that impacts working middle class families. It is a revenue neutrality which means that to get a reduction for the working middle class, somebody has to pay … and who is being targeted … people that manage Hedge Funds and thereby report their income at the lower tax rates as Capital Gains.

Additionally, Kline has to explain WHY he voted for Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU) in 2005 (HR #3 Roll Call 65) which most of us know for the Bridge to Nowhere and other wasteful projects, but now opposes INVESTING in Minnesota ?
