Karl Rove endorses Republican Terry Dunn for Alabama PSC against Democrat Susan Parker

9/3/2010 5:56:41 AM

MONTGOMERY, Ala. — Former George W. Bush political adviser Karl Rove has endorsed Republican Terry Dunn for the Alabama Public Service Commission.

Rove says Dunn is a businessman who would use his experience to help recruit jobs, and he would oppose cap and trade legislation because it would raise utility rates in Alabama.

Dunn says he's humbled by the endorsement. He faces Democratic incumbent Susan Parker in the general election Nov. 2.

    Republican, Place 2: Dunn’s 25 years of experience as a general contractor in Etowah County give him an upbringing that may serve him well on the state’s utility commission. Dunn also is state licensed in municipal utilities, a trait in his favor. (It’s worth noting that Dunn moved his candidacy from state Treasurer to the PSC after George Wallace Jr. added his name to the Treasurer ballot.)

    Dunn takes a strong stance against Washington’s cap-and-trade, which he knows would increase power rates in the state. Dunn also wants to wage war against the rising cost of cable television.

     Dunn, a businessman involved with construction and rental properties, has been active in Republican politics at the state and local committee level. More important to voters, he also talks about bringing more openness to the PSC, perhaps by televising meetings or at least putting live video on the Internet. http://blog.al.com/birmingham-news-commentary/2010/05/our_view_twinkle_cavanaugh_is.html

    Americans for Prosperity Applauds Alabama Public Service Commission Candidate Terry Dunn

    Americans for Prosperity Applauds Alabama Public Service Commission Candidate Terry Dunn

    -Signs No Climate Tax Pledge-

     

    Washington, DC—The free market grassroots group Americans for Prosperity (AFP) today applauded Alabama Public Service Commission candidate Terry Dunn (1st District) for signing the group’s “No Climate Tax Pledge.” Dunn joins over 365 lawmakers and candidates on the federal, state and local levels pledging to “oppose legislation relating to climate change that includes a net increase in government revenue.” 

     

    “The one thing elected officials should be able to agree on is that global warming shouldn’t be used as an excuse to hike taxes on citizens and businesses,” said AFP Vice President for Policy Phil Kerpen.  “We encourage all of Alabama’s elected officials and candidates for elected office to sign the pledge.”

     

    Cap-and-trade took its first step toward enactment last year when the U.S. House narrowly passed the Waxman-Markey energy tax bill, which escaped the lower chamber by a scant seven votes despite significant bipartisan opposition.  The Senate has struggled to pass companion legislation, with key Democratic senators openly expressing opposition to attempting to pass the energy tax bill. 

     

    President Obama has made no secret of his support for the bill, which would be the largest tax increase in American history.  The non-partisan Congressional Budget Office has scored the House plan as an $846 billion increase in federal revenue, a burden that will be borne by taxpayers and consumers for decades to come.

     

    “Using the guise of climate change to transfer dollars from hard-working citizens to bureaucratic big government is unacceptable,” said Kerpen. “Regardless of their stance on global warming, this should be common ground for all of our elected officials at all levels of government.”

     

    The pledge is available online at www.NoClimateTax.com.  AFP does not endorse candidates.  All elected officials and candidates are encouraged to sign the pledge and go on the record in opposition to using the climate change issue to increase taxes and grow the size of government.

     

    Americans for Prosperity® (AFP) is a nationwide organization of citizen leaders committed to advancing every individual's right to economic freedom and opportunity. AFP believes reducing the size and scope of government is the best safeguard to ensuring individual productivity and prosperity for all Americans. AFP educates and engages citizens in support of restraining state and federal government growth, and returning government to its constitutional limits. AFP has more than 900,000 members, including members in all 50 states, and 25 state chapters. More than 55,000 Americans in all 50 states have made a financial investment in AFP or AFP Foundation.  For more information, visit www.americansforprosperity.org
