PVS:Increase taxes to balance budget.

Porter supports the PVS survey question on tax increases

Project Vote Smart inferred whether candidates agree or disagree with the statement, 'Budget: In order to balance the budget, do you support an income tax increase on any tax bracket?'

Historically, candidates have failed to complete our test due to the advice they receive from their advisors and out of fear of negative attack ads."
