As a candidate for the United States Senate I built my campaign around my support of the FairTax legislation that is currently before Congress. The FairTax continues to gain support as indicated below.
Linder, R-Duluth, announced he had reached 65 co-sponsors for his tax reform legislation, where income taxes would be replaced with a national sales tax. The latest supporters are Oklahoma Reps. Frank Lucas and Mary Fallin.
"We have seen extraordinary traction this year," Linder said in a press release. "Grassroots support across the nation is motivating (Congress) members to study the FairTax and decide whether they are going to be for the bill or against the bill. I certainly appreciate Rep. Fallin's support, although I cannot take credit for her signature; it was her constituency."
The FairTax is the most highly co-sponsored piece of tax reform legislation in the U.S. House of Representatives, out-numbering its closest competition, the Freedom Flat Tax, by 59 co-sponsors. Linder said the FairTax has more co-sponsors than any other piece of tax reform legislation proposed in over three decades.
"I believe this is just the beginning," he said. "I can't go anywhere anymore without someone asking me how the FairTax is doing. People are paying attention and they are looking for ideas in which to believe. The FairTax is one that really resonates and creates excitement. We are working to reach 100 co-sponsors in the 110th Congress, and once we do that the politicians in Washington will have no choice but to listen. I have said many times, the people are way ahead of the politicians on this issue."
I will continue to spread the word about the FairTax to my fellow Americans, because their support is needed immediately in order for the FairTax to become the law of the land.
SHALOM!
PEACE BE WITH YOU!
