THE NEXT GRASSROOTS REVOLUTION From Rep. John Linder, The sponsor of HR 25, the FairTax legislation. The most enjoyable parts about generating support for tax reform and my FairTax bill have been meeting energetic Americans, seeing the bill bring together hundreds of thousands of supporters, and pressing forward with more co-sponsors in the House of Representatives than ever. The most disappointing...

As John Stossel points out. Still, the taxation, and the variety of ways that it slows our economy, is pretty bad. If you want to do something about it, support John Linder. If Republicans take back Congress, he’ll be Chairman of the Ways and Means Committee, and he’s one of the cosponsors of the FairTax – [...]

I deference to Buzz, I resent my email to John Linder. Mr. Linder responded within 48 hours with a fine letter that renewed my faith in him. Now I’m only waiting for Harry Reid, although I’m not holding my breath. I believe Mr. Reid is preoccupied with another restaurant encounter with Sally! Respectfully Submitted, The Oracle Of Winder, [...]

Saxby Chambliss and Johnny Isakson have auto-responded and followed up with a second message.

Many of us first learned about the FairTax listening to nationally-syndicated talk show host Neal Boortz or by reading one of the best-selling books that he and Congressman John Linder wrote. Neal has done as much as anyone in the country for the FairTax and he's been good at it. He's also appeared at almost every big FairTax rally for the last ten years.
