Fair Tax Virtual Storm the Hill

The Fair Tax Virtual Storm the Hill will begin the afternoon of April 16 and continue through April 17. We encourage everyone to call their Representatives and Senators — you may want to send an email and/or a fax in addition to the phone call.
You can call the U.S. Capitol Switchboard at (202)224-3121 and ask for your senators’ and/or representative’s office.

Remember that telephone calls are usually taken by a staff member, not the member of Congress. Ask to speak with the tax aid or the legislative aid. (Make a note of the name of the person you speak with and note their position, example tax aid, so you can follow up with the person at a later date)

After identifying yourself, tell the aide you would like to leave a brief message, such as: “Please tell Senator/Representative (Name) to actively support (S.13/H.R. 25).”

You will also want to state reasons for your support for the bill. Ask for your senators’ or representative’s position on the bill. You may also request a written response to your telephone call.

If your Congressman is already a cosponsor, you can ask for their plans to promote the Fair Tax.

To call your Congressman’s office directly or to look up the name of your member of congress go to: www.ContactingtheCongress.org This site also has local offices, fax numbers, etc.

A brief visit to your Congressmen’s local office with a short letter is also a wonderful addition to your phone call.

There is still time to register for the National Fair Tax Grassroots Town Hall,
April 14 & 15.
For more information or to register go to: www.fairtaxnation.org

Please use the “Tell a Friend” link to pass this Alert on to your Friends and Family

We have to stop this Montgomery County tax madness. We need you at the Public Hearing Thursday night March 29th! This is a public hearing and the PUBLIC MUST BE HEARD! Bring as many friends and neighbors as you can possibly alert!!!

  CAN YOU STAND AN INCREASE OF 16 % on top of last year 6% increase????

YOUR HOUSE & THE STORES YOU PATRONIZE WILL BE AFFECTED. THE PRICE OF THE PRODUCTS YOU PURCHASE WILL INCREASE, AS WELL AS THE TAXES ON YOUR HOME. IF YOU RENT, YOUR LANDLORD WILL PASS ON THE INCREASE TO YOU.

Email us at nrvteaparty@gmail.com for the file for complete budget summary and the Ppt. file of the proposed budget.

It is outrageous that 70 Percent of our entire county budget is for schools alone and that 15% of our annual expenses are to pay off debt. The county has increased debt by about 600 % over the last decade and is continuing this debt escalation without cutting budgets and only expanding budgets each year.

You don’t have to speak-just being there will send a message. If you bring a short written statement to read all the better as the board tends to respond only to the public comment pressure.

The email below from a member explains how important it is that you attend the public hearing.

I am writing to seek your help in opposing those who would have our real estate taxes rise dramatically. Groups such as Occupy Blacksburg and the School Board and parent teacher association are opposed to cost-cutting measures that any sensible budget process would use to contain costs and improve efficiency. If unopposed, their budget demands could help raise our current rate from 75 cents to as high as 87 cents. (oringinally 99 cents now capped at 87 cents which is 16 percent and still hundreds or even thousands of dollar increase to homes and businesses)

I feel that the Board of Supervisors has grown accustomed to meeting budget requests rather than absolute needs. It has become all too easy to raise taxes each year. There seems to be minimal assessment of real needs, poor planning for the future, minimal supervision of expenditures, and reporting units are not asked to submit balanced budgets. This approach must be stopped if we are to avoid running into severe financial problems in the near future.

I urge you to attend the Board of Supervisors Puplic Hearing at 6pm, Thursday March 29 at the Montgomery County Government Center, 755 Roanoke Street, Christiansburg. You don’t have to speak, (but even better please bring your short written comment to read just stating why that you oppose this drastic and unjustified tax hike) The voices of all citizens as well as those businesses with business and budgeting experience will help our effort. The main thing is that we get a strong turnout to let the BOS know we vehemently oppose this huge tax hike..

Please pass on this message to others who share our views. We need a huge turnout.
