“Jared Polis doesn’t want to pay his fair share in taxes, but wants to force Colorado families to shoulder a higher tax burden,” said RGA Communications Director Jon Thompson. “Jared Polis was caught not paying federal income taxes for five years, was caught using onshore and offshore Cayman Island accounts to avoid paying taxes, and was caught stating that all of it was ‘completely appropriate.’ Polis is just another typical do-as-I-say, not-as-I-do politician who can’t be trusted to lead Colorado forward.”

Script:

Multi-millionaire Jared Polis got caught.

“For five years, though, before you entered Congress, you paid no federal income tax.”

Uh-oh.

“and have used onshore and offshore Cayman Island accounts to avoid paying taxes.”

“I think that’s, you know, completely appropriate.”

Jared Polis didn’t pay income taxes, but he wants to raise yours.

Higher income taxes, Higher energy taxes. High taxes on everyone.

Except maybe… Jared Polis.
