The ‘Best Alternative’ to Tax Day

“Our tax policy should reflect our economic ambitions, not be a millstone around the neck of the American economy. Our tax code can and should leverage our entrepreneurial spirit and reward our hard work… thankfully we have a clear alternative — the FairTax. Let’s make April 15 just another beautiful spring day.” – Rep. Rob Woodall (GA-07)

This year taxpayers were provided an extra three days to file their income tax forms with the IRS.

But whether it’s the 15th or the 18th of April, the fact remains: The IRS is currently ‘in charge’ when it comes to taxes, not the average American.

The good news is, you and I both know it doesn’t have to be this way.

This week, U.S. Representative Rob Woodall (GA-07) offered a great and timely reminder that the FAIRtax is the very ‘best alternative’ to Tax Day out there.

“Some have proposed plans to reduce the complexity of your tax return and shrink the reach of the IRS,” writes Woodall, House sponsor of the FairTax Act of 2015, for the Gwinnet Daily Post. “But at a time when America is wasting millions of hours and billions of dollars on compliance, and the IRS is more dangerous than it has ever been, nibbling around the edges of a failed system is not the answer. My plan is the FairTax, which would eliminate your tax return entirely, put the IRS out of business for good, and mark the largest transfer of power from Washington back to the American people in our history.”

Rep. Woodall also notes that the FAIRtax would allow the American worker to keep his or her entire paycheck for the first time since World War II, and pay taxes only on voluntary purchases at the check-out counter.

I urge you to read and share Rep. Woodall’s excellent case for the FAIRtax today, right here.

The movement to promote and pass the FAIRtax is truly exciting. Grassroots Americans in all fifty states are becoming members of the 1040 Club, showing their support for the FairTax in a very real way.

For what equates to a few cups of coffee, you can support our campaign to make the FairTax law in a very powerful way.
