El Paso Taxpayer Revolt Podcast Interview with District 7 Candidate Lily Limon

Published | Video Starts at 12:39

Not in the center of the city where you have urban blight, and that's what turzas are supposed to be for, but an open space where nobody lives. I don't. I'm not in agreement with that. And I often worry the terrors are very, very focused on one person, one, you know, group of people where they're the ones that are going to benefit. And so as citizens, we're giving up. Giving up this tax, taxes that should be used, and then let. Letting those institutions or people or organizations not pay taxes. (12:39–13:00)
