Exciting Times for FairTax Indiana!

Exciting Times For FairTax Indiana!

There are a lot of exciting things happening for FairTax Indiana! The new website is growing and has become a great place to share ideas and network with other supporters. We are seeing growth in our supporter database and online petitions. Our group members have been very successful this year attending Tea Parties, gun shows, statehouse rallies, meeting with community groups and have had the opportunity to speak to thousands of people about the greatest “stimulus” package there is… The FairTax! It is awesome to be a part of the Leadership here in Indiana. As the District 5 Director, I have had the pleasure of attending the Leadership Institute in Lafayette with our State Director and other District Directors. It was an intense two days of training that we have found ways to integrate into our work to make the FairTax a reality.

There are a lot of exciting ideas circulating inside FairTax Indiana… We are planning a blitz of county and community fairs in 2010. (We are exploring the possibility of having a FairTax sponsored race car to have on display at some of these events.) We are looking at new ways to use social networking. We are continually working to improve the website and make it more user friendly and compatible with other social media. There are discussions of starting an email newsletter that will better serve those who want the news and information about the FairTax, but aren’t comfortable in the FaceBook/Ning/Twitter world.

There is a lot of excitement and discussion about making a push for a state version of the FairTax a reality here in Indiana. We can once and for all put an end to the Property Tax issue! We are seeing that people are very receptive to the idea of abolishing the property tax, state personal income tax, and corporate income tax and replacing it with a broader based consumption tax. If you are interested in learning more and being a part of this push, please join the Hoosier FairTax Bill Group

We are seeing our long hours and hard work payoff. As a District Director I want to thank all of our volunteers for all they do. Without all the sent emails, FaceBook posts, conversations with friends and family, bumper stickers and the like, FairTax Indiana would be going nowhere. I also want to thank the whole team of Leaders for all their dedication and hard work. AND thank their SPOUSES and families for all their support and enduring the lost family time.

VERY SOON there will be an announcement made that will prove just how effective all our volunteers and leaders have been this year. It is going to be evident what a passionate, consistent, and PERSISTENT group of activists can accomplish working together. We all hope you enjoy the news as much as we have been. Lets enjoy it together, spread the news and get ready to push to the finish line… 2010 is going to be a big year for the FairTax movement!
