LETTER TO THE JACKSON COUNTY ALABAMA SENTINEL
Today’s Grassroots Corner is a letter to the editor of the Jackson County, Alabama, Sentinel from Anthony “Tony” Gasbarro. The letter was published several years ago, but Google Alerts recently picked it up. It reads:
Dear Editor:
It's not a Democratic or Republican, liberal or conservative type issue. Federal taxation is an issue all Americans deal with daily. There is a Bill in Congress, HR 25, the FairTax Bill, that eliminates all federal taxes on income and replaces it with a tax on consumption on new goods and services.
Who wins? First, the economy wins, as millions of new jobs are created due to our new found worldwide competitiveness.
Second, all Americans win as their gross pay becomes their take home pay (states will most likely replace their income tax with a consumption tax).
Who loses? Special interest groups as politicians can no longer grant favors to supporters by creating tax loopholes.
Learn more at fairtax.org.
Call your Congressman today and demand he become a co-sponsor.
—Anthony Gasbarro, Fairhope, Alabama

Alabama State Director Chuck Bailey advises us that Tony was the District Director for Alabama's 1st congressional district.
By writing to the editor of his local paper, Tony did what each of us needs to be doing to pass the FAIRtax. If you published, or even submitted, a letter to the editor of your local paper, I would love to re-publish it here.
