The “Pledge” is a non-partisan promise to the taxpayers taken by candidates and states they will block all efforts to incur a state sales or income tax. CNHT will continue to solicit a Pledge from those candidates who have not yet committed after the primaries and up until the general election on November 4, 2008.
