He voted to increase the state gas tax, motor fuel tax, and registration fees.
He voted to increase regulations on auto repairs.
He voted against electric choice.
He was one of only 12 house Republicans to vote against an income tax cut.
He was one of only 7 house Republicans to vote against constitutional carry.

There is a better choice. Matt Hall is right on the issues where Maturen is wrong. (The third candidate in the race recently dropped out and endorsed Hall.) Matt Hall is the clear choice for conservatives.

An almost identical statement can be said for Wayne Schmidt (R) and is stronger on the corporate welfare crap. That's why Jim Gurr is a refreshing choice. Remember, as an absentee voter, you have until 4:00 on election day to spoil and revote your ballot.. Merely go to you city/township clerk's office. Please help us to Make Michigan Great Again.
Why hell, Maturen isn’t liberal- he’s typical Lansing Republican! And, if voters actually gave a shit, you wouldn’t see Republicans like Jim still saddled up to the government trough, but bounced out to the curb on his big fat ass.
