We have another great opportunity to spread the FairTax message!
The Restoring America Rally with Governor Sarah Palin will be held on Saturday, September 3, 2011. The event is from 11 am to 2 pm
Indianola Balloon Grounds ( about 15 miles south of De Moines, IA)
15335 Jewell Street
Indianola, Iowa
Admission is free
Parking fee of $5.00
Bring your lawn chairs & FairTax material. An extra table or two for FairTax material may be helpful too.
 
Please note that FairTax does not endorse or support candidates of any party. This is an event that is expected to draw large crowds and media so this is an opportunity to spread the FairTax message to those in attendance.
 
 
If you can volunteer, please contact me!
 
Thanks,

This is an urgent request! Please, we need your help!

I hope you are all checking the main page of Fair Nation as we are spreading the FairTax message across Iowa.

1) We need FairTax volunteers to meet the bus at every stop on the Iowa Tea Party bus tour

If you know someone who can help, let me know!

Richard,

I am glad someone is taking the lead here in the state.  We are in the process of planning an April 15th Tax Day event in Elkader.  A FairTax explanation will be part of the event.  Have a good evening.
