As the year draws to a close,
we pause to review
our accomplishments from the last year
and look forward
to chart our course for the future.

2009

2009 was a very productive year for the FairTax movement, carrying forward the momentum of taxation issues raised in the prior election year:

* The Tea Parties from the spring and summer drew taxation to the forefront and gave us the perfect forum to present our solution: The FairTax Plan.

* FairTax events in Missouri and DC showed the world that we are a movement with lots of grassroots support.

* FairTax Nation has blossomed as a vital network for supporters to discuss, learn, and get involved.

* FairTax Alabama finished the year with District Directors for all seven of Alabama’s congressional districts and held the first two of the new quarterly leadership meetings.

* FairTax Alabama District 4 finished the year with seven Community Groups, progressing toward the goal of having one in each county.

* And our own FairTax DeKalb got off the ground with a new website, regular monthly meetings, and promotional activities.

2010

2010 is shaping up to be a very exciting year, with mid-term elections and rumors of a Value Added Tax opening the door to discuss the FairTax..

Some of my goals for the FairTax DeKalb group include:

* Continue meeting every month, with more regular attendance.

* Begin a series of informative talks to equip our members to discuss the FairTax with confidence.

* Continue recruiting new members from our friends, neighbors, and acquaintances.

* Increase our promotional push in the form of handouts, posters, and local advertising.

* Find a Membership Director to spearhead these recruiting efforts.

* Participate in local and regional (and maybe national) Tea Parties.

But these are just my ideas and I welcome yours. We have one more meeting this year and hope to welcome many new faces from our recent promotions.

Please join us
Monday, December 28th at 6 pm
for dinner and discussion
about the FairTax
at the Golden Rule BBQ
in Fort Payne.
