Taxpayer Protection Pledge

The Taxpayer Protection Pledge is a formal commitment made by politicians, typically legislators or candidates, to oppose increases in taxes. By signing the pledge, they publicly assure voters they will support policies that limit or reduce taxes and oppose efforts to raise them. It aims to promote fiscal responsibility and prevent tax hikes that could burden taxpayers. While it signals a commitment to controlling government spending, it may also restrict lawmakers' flexibility in addressing complex economic issues.
