WASHINGTON (AP) — Hillary Clinton is stepping up her criticism of Donald Trump, arguing in a new campaign ad that she's the candidate "tough enough to stop Trump."
The spot takes aim at Trump's recent assertion that women should be punished for getting abortions, a position he quickly reversed. It also highlights Trump's harsh rhetoric about some Mexicans coming to the United States and his call for blocking Muslims from the U.S. because of terror threats.
Massachusetts lost a true taxpayers' champion Friday with the passing of Barbara C. Anderson.
Anderson was the driving force behind 1980's Proposition 2 1/2, the signature law that forced the Bay State down the road to shedding its well-deserved "Taxachusetts" moniker, and the champion of many subsequent tax-cutting or limiting measures. She succumbed to leukemia Friday at 73, according to Citizens for Limited Taxation, the group she led for decades.
