Jeremy H. G. Hayes, a candidate for Wilson County Commissioner, District 16 in Mt. Juliet, Tennessee, is making a strong case for ending what he sees as an unfair practice of double taxation for city residents. Specifically, Hayes is focused on the EMS (Emergency Medical Services) tax, which residents of Mt. Juliet currently pay both to the city and to Wilson County. This system, according to Hayes, is not only financially burdensome but also fundamentally inequitable, as city residents only use the city’s EMS services.
