Demand the Vote: Volunteer to Spread the Message on Tax Day
Date: Tuesday, April 15, 2008
Time: 11:30 AM – 6:30 PMEach year DC residents pay billions of dollars in federal income taxes but are denied a vote in Congress. Our country was founded on the principle that taxation without representation is tyranny – yet for nearly 600,000 citizens of DC, taxation without representation is a fact of daily life.
Next Tuesday, April 15 – “Taxed Without Representation” Day – join DC Vote staff, volunteers and activists to educate citizens about taxation without representation in the nation’s capital.
We will circulate postcards and a “wooden nickel” to Senate staffers and visitors to Capitol Hill. See below for our “Taxed Without Representation” day schedule. Please join us!
If you do not live in DC you can help us by letting your Rep. & Senators know that you care about this.
Marion Barry for Senate ’08!
Marion’s too ill to be a Senator and wouldn’t likely win more than a small percentage outside of 7 and 8 and perhaps a bit of 4 and 5. Now, if there were a number of people in the race, he’d win.
Wish I could be there, but I’m volunteering as a tax preparer that night in Ward 7.
