Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush said Friday he opposes Grover Norquist’s tax pledge because it asks politicians to “outsource your principles and convictions” — a comment Norquist calls “humiliating, embarrassing.”
At a hearing of the House Budget Committee, Rep. Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.) asked Bush, a Republican, if he agreed with the Americans Tax Reform pledge to oppose all tax increases. Bush responded that he refused to sign the pledge three times.
