And she is a governor? Maybe she should back that up with her going first and announcing that everyone should stop too

Does that idiot woman understand that employers send those taxes to the feds?

Bold of her to put the employers in the cross hairs of the irs.

Actually could be reverse psychology and a step to doing a way with federal income taxes. Get the Dem states to lead the charge and make it so for the rest of the US

This will not end well for Maine.

Fight it in court- fine.

How would the state even have the power or the resources to interfere in the private sector from withholding and paying federal taxes?

Suppose you own a business in Maine. Are you going to go along with your Governor and not withhold or pay the federal taxes (and FICA) for your employees? That would be crazy.

actually like the idea of states collecting the federal taxes and then remitting them to the federal government.

Give them to Canada. What does Maine provide anyway besides a home for illegals?

Is there any proof of this outside of your screenshot? Seeing several things online saying this is completely false.

I wouldn't put it past her, but just curious what actual proof there is she said it.

I thought she wanted to go to court? Now it sounds like she wants everyone to break the law instead.

Quite interesting

Interesting how Democrats are now the party of state's rights and a weak federal government.

They were during slavery too, but they haven't been for several decades.

Now they are again.

If they start a war over this, hope they do it the end of September, so after we have taken out the trash we can see the leaves change starting the first week of October

Trump Loyalists are now rooting for the IRS.

This is fricking gold.

No we like laws to be applied equally to everyone
