WHO
We Are
Alabama
FairTax District 5
is a local group of supporters of The FairTax
Plan for tax reform, a progressive national sales tax that abolishes
personal and corporate income taxes, payroll taxes (FICA), capital gains
taxes, gift taxes, and estate taxes. (Learn

WHAT
We Do
Activities include: Educating friends and
neighbors about The FairTax Plan, advocating
its passage by writing letters to our congressmen
and newspaper editors, attending tea parties, and proudly displaying our
support with t-shirts and bumper stickers.
 WHERE We Are
Alabama's 5th Congressional
District stretches across the northern border of Alabama.
District 5 counties include: Colbert, Lauderdale, Lawrence,
Limestone, Madison, and Jackson, with part of Morgan County, as well.
WHEN
We Meet
We
now have two groups with monthly meetings:
WHY
It's Important
The FairTax Plan simplifies the tax code by
getting rid of loopholes and exemptions for privileged groups. Because
powerful Washington lobbyists object to this loss of special treatment and
because many legislators profit from corrupting the current system, we have
a big fight ahead. Only an active grassroots movement can bring about the
kind of change we need.
HOW
to Get Involved
There
are so many ways to get involved: From simply
signing an on-line petition to organizing a FairTax rally, there's bound to
be something that fits your interests, talents, and free time.
