NEW SECTION OF HR25

SEC. 401. ELIMINATION OF SALES TAX IF SIXTEENTH AMENDMENT NOT REPEALED.
If the Sixteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States is not repealed before the end of the 7-year period beginning on the date of the enactment of this Act, then all provisions of, and amendments made by, this Act shall not apply to any use or consumption in any year beginning after December 31 of the calendar year in which or with which such period ends, except that the Sales Tax Bureau of the Department of the Treasury shall not be terminated until 6 months after such December 31.

This is supposed to make our Congress more comfortable with the FairTax, which we sorely need this year to get us out of this horrible economic hole they have gotten us into. This has been a bi-partisan effort to bring our country down economically and make us more dependent than ever on "government". Now let's "hope" for a bi-partisan effort to boost our economy back up and make it more prosperous than ever, with the FairTax.

Keep on writing, calling or faxing your congressman until they finally get the picture - it's not about them, it's about the economy. And about the survival of our country.

MAKE SOME NOISE

I just read about the Grassroots Freedom Rides, a motorcycle group who is touring the country to promote the FairTax

You can make a pledge to contribute so much per mile and 80% of the collections will go to support the efforts of Fairtaxers all over the country to help them in their efforts to inform and enthuse the public about the FairTax. Following is a portion of their Mission Statement from their website.

Mission Statement
To generate enthusiasm, give a voice and fund raising assistance to grass root supporters in the FairTax movement throughout the nation, through motorcycle enthusiasts and those who support them. We seek to "Make Some Noise" so that we're heard throughout the USA. We seek to synergize the time, talent and treasure of FairTax grass roots supporters by organizing a financial support system for the great ideas generated by this wonderful group of people to educate their fellow citizens about the FairTax.

Please visit their website to view the rest of their mission statement, pictures of their motorcycles, etc. and how to make a pledge to this worthy cause.
