Replace All Federal Taxes on Income with the Fair Tax Act of 2011, HR 25 & S 13
Tea Parties Stand on the Fair Tax
I recieved this response from The Tea Party when asked Yes or NO if the contract with America includes the Fair Tax:
Phil,
The CFA's 5th point is Fundamental tax reform, which calls for a simple single-rate tax system. That could be either a flat tax or the Fair Tax. We're leaving the option open because either would be better than the current mess, and at this stage we should be united in getting fundamental tax reform on the agenda.
Best,
Ryan
FYI.
I'm not real happy about it, sounds like the Tea Party is starting to sound like the rest of the Government!!!
Tell us what we want to hear so we can get in and then we will talk more.
YEAH RIGHT!

Welcome to my world...If it is any consolation, most of the Tea Party (powers that be) support the FairTax from the local to the state levels as do many of the Tea Partiers. However, the Tea Party groups do not wish to offend members who support the Flat Tax (obviously) so we can't expect them to side with either, rather welcome everyone that does not support the status quo. I went to a large Tea Party recently composed of at least 11 Tea Party groups from FL. Almost all of them had FairTax yard signs in front of their booths and a number of them dedicated half their table to FairTax info, T-Shirts and etc. Loads of FairTaxers set up their lawn chairs up front where the speakers couldn't help but see them when they held up those signs (Rubio and Scott among others).
The Tea Party groups are just that. They're about American Consitutionalism. They're not FairTax Groups. But we can reach out and make friends and many of the FairTaxers belong to Tea Party groups - after all we were the original Tea Partiers!
Appreciate those Tea Partiers who embrace us and let the rest wonder why they do. Eventually they will wonder and seek to know. Once they "get it" they will join us too! -

I vote for the Tea Party and the Fair Tax. So far I have not had to choose between the two.
