Letter 1:
Dear Senator ______: or Dear Representative ______:
Help Americans make a difference in our future. Please be a co-sponsor of the FairTax legislation, (HR-25 or S-155)and help return America to it former economic pre-eminence.
For too long, American business has labored under the handicap imposed by our punitive tax code and the higher prices it forces on American products in overseas markets. For too long, American jobs have been lost because foreign goods, unencumbered by our onerous tax system, have held a competitive advantage over domestically produced products.
Give the Workers of America a chance. Get rid of our current system of confiscatory income and business taxes, and replace it with the FairTax.
I look to you to represent the wishes of your constituents and serve as our representative as we retake control of our economic future. Represent us, and co-sponsor (HR-25 or S-155).
Information on the FairTax is available at or feel free to contact me at ______(phone and/or e-mail address).

Letter 2:
Dear Senator ______: or Dear Representative ______:
Show that you are doing your part to keep America strong by supporting and co-sponsoring the FairTax, (HR-25 or S-155).
This legislation will achieve the following important economic factors:
1.It is fair to all businesses and consumers (no businesses pays taxes and consumers all pay the same rate and receive the same prebate).
2. It is transparent (citizens see their true tax burden on every sales receipt).
3. It stops punishing productive behavior by un-taxing work, savings, investments, and only taxes an individual when they take from society.
3. It makes America the most attractive place to do business in the world by eliminating the tax burden from businesses, making them more competitive, which, in turn, will create more jobs for Americans.
Please do your part and support a true tax reform that will permanently restore America’s economy.

Letter 3:
Dear Senator ______: or Dear Representative ______:
I was initially a little apprehensive about the FairTax proposal and for that reason I can understand that you may have concerns. It is apparent, however, that something must be done about our current Tax laws to make them fair and pro growth.
I believe in due diligence and the more I study the FairTax, the more sense it makes, and the more data I find to support it.
The following links are States in the Union that already have No Income Tax and a listing of the States showing how they are performing economically:
* Map of USA highlighting states with no income tax on wages.PNG
* Map of states drawing more population
* List of states ranked by taxes
This alone proves the idea that government can collect the necessary revenues from sales taxes alone.
In addition, other countries that have decreased their business taxes, or have converted the old tax system to a simpler model, have all experienced significant increases in Gross Domestic Product, the very thing promised by the FairTax.
Please take another hard look at this proposal and make a difference in our community, county, district, state, and nation. I'm confident you want to do the right thing for our state and citizens. All I ask is that you look and compare the alternative tax systems and their economic results with what we have today and our economic results. Eliminate taxation of business and individual productive behavior and allow the People of the United Statesto be taxed directly rather than dishonestly with hidden taxes in the prices of the things they buy. The FairTax as all about truth in taxation and job creation.
I will try to address any concern or thoughts you may have. Question are always a great way to learn and I'll do my best to provide you with answers to your questions.

Letter 4:
Dear Senator ______: or Dear Representative ______:
I am writing today to ask your assistance in giving me and the voters of America the opportunity to listen to a fair and honest debate of the FairTax proposal (HR-25 or
S-155). I see no reason why this legislative proposal, with it’s potential to address many of most pressing financial and business issues, should not be given a free and open debate before the Houses of Congress. Since a FairTax would be a very good solution to our fiscal crisis, and bring the benefits of economic growth, and prosperity to our Nation, I feel that once public, and our elected officials, have studied the proposal fairly and openly, we would find a common ground for tax reform.
I petition you, as my elected representative, to represent our wishes and become a cosponsor of the FairTax.,

Letter 5:
Dear Senator ______: or Dear Representative ______:
Change is never easy, however I must ask your cooperation as our Nation seeks to place its financial house in order. I am sure you are aware that a bill, (HR-25 or S-155), was introduced to eliminate the current system of income taxation, and replace it with a National Retail Sales Tax, the FairTax.
I am a FairTax supporter, and did not find your name among those listed as cosponsors which brings me to the point of this letter.
I ask you to represent me, and those who share my views, by co-sponsoring this important legislation. I will be very disappointed if the only way I can attain representation on the FairTax issue is through the use of my vote to effectuate the type of change necessary to place elected representatives into office that do, in fact, represent our views.
I do sincerely hope we can work together to avoid such an outcome. With respect and appreciation for all you do.
