Replace All Federal Taxes on Income with the Fair Tax Act , HR 25

Rep. Steve King Stands up For The American Dream and Offers FairTax as a Solution to Today's Economic Meltdown.

It starts now with Rep Cliff Stearns of Florida talking about FairTax! GO FAIRTAX GO! CSPAN link: http://www.cspan.org/Watch/C-SPAN_wm.aspx

Our current economic crisis will not be solved through tax increases or massive government spending. In these tough times, we need an innovative solution on Capitol Hill: the FairTax. The FairTax is the best and most effective way to encourage business growth and positive, long-term economic performance. Enacting the FairTax would usher in a new period of American economic growth, create new jobs across the country and give American citizens more control over their own paychecks. On Tuesday, March 17, several of my House colleagues and I will spend an hour on the House floor discussing the merits of the FairTax and sharing its positive message with CSPAN viewers. Our goal is to educate and inform more Americans about the FairTax and how it can help American workers and businesses. Millions of Americans have either never heard of the FairTax or do not know enough about it, but as more people hear about the FairTax, support grows. My hope is that this hour and similar opportunities in the future will add to the groundswell of national FairTax support. I spent 28 years running my own construction business, and I remember thinking that if I was ever in a position to help dismantle the IRS, I would do everything I could to make that happen. Right now we need the FairTax not only because our federal tax system is broken beyond repair, but because it will help unemployed Americans find new jobs and help families pay their bills. Now is the time to position the FairTax in the center of the ongoing economic debate in Congress, the White House and throughout America. Rep. Steve King

Comment by Danny Higgins on March 16, 2009 at 8:55pm: Thank you Rep. King. I will be watching. Alot of Indiana's FairTax supporters will be watching and hopefully with the word getting out on the local talk radio here, even the curious bystanders will be watching!

Comment by Jojn Newman on March 16, 2009 at 8:47pm: Thank you Rep. King, Thank you for being a true American and stand up with us to try and do the right thing for this country. I just wish my own Rep. Steve Austria was more of a leader. If he does not change his ways he will be a one term Rep. Thanks Again John Newman

Comment by Marc on March 16, 2009 at 8:45pm: Rep. King...I want to personally thank you for what you're about to do on Tuesday night. I really hope that the message does get out to the people that don't know what the Fair Tax is all about. I tell everyone I run into, and it's roughly 8 out of 10 don't know what it is. I tell them where to go and how to research it...and the usual response I get back is, "Oh my....why are we NOT doing this yet?!?!" I'm sure to the lavishly rich they really don't like it all that much. But to everyday folk like the majority of the nation...it is so beneficial it's hard to put into words. I'm doing everything I can to pass the word. Please tell the 4 members of Congress that came aboard "Thank you" from a population that really needs their support in this campaign to really do something about this mess we're in. Good luck tomorrow night, sir! We're behind ya!

Comment by Jim Tomasik on March 16, 2009 at 8:02pm: It would help if all those people on the list were talking about it.

Comment by Sean Fagan on March 16, 2009 at 7:49pm: Well...

While Houston can send an email to everyone on their list - they will only reach people who already know about the Fair Tax. As Congressman King aptly points out - "...Millions of Americans have either never heard of the FairTax or do not know enough about it, but as more people hear about the FairTax, support grows."

I think Jamie is right - our challenge is to get this statement in front of as many people as possible, especially those who have never heard of the Fair Tax.

Of course, I'm not sure how to do that - yet. Give me some time and maybe I'll think of something, but I'm sure it will take big buck$.

Just my two cents.

Comment by Jim Tomasik on March 16, 2009 at 7:07pm: Ok, you do that. I do not know how.

I have a better idea. How about Houston send and email to everyone on their list.

Comment by Jamie Wheeler WA on March 16, 2009 at 7:00pm: This is AWESOME!!!! WE need to get that into print in EVERY paper across America, but since that isn't likely to happen how about bulletining it on our Face, Space and Twitters?
