The Boston Globe: The Committee for Small Government, led by libertarian Carla Howell, had less than $25,000 left in its account to try and persuade voters to repeal the income tax, according to the group's reports filed yesterday, four days after a disclosure deadline. The Coalition for Our Communities, formed to convince voters to keep the 5.3-percent income tax intact, still had a war chest of $1.3 million in contributions from a group of teacher and labor unions, according to its filings submitted on the Friday deadline. The records show that Howell and Cloud received nearly $25,000 in consulting fees this year between them, representing almost a fifth of what the committee spent from January to August. The Coalition for Our Communities has hired two powerful firms as consultants, paying $18,000 to Carpman Communications and $19,500 to the Dewey Square Group. But the group has also raised $1.5 million, with two-thirds coming from national teacher unions. Unions would probably have the most to lose if the income tax was repealed, since it would trigger layoffs across state government.
