There
is a great tradition of war tax resistance in the United States.
When our political leaders have not listened to the will of the
people, individuals have engaged in civil disobedience. On
April 15th, many anti-war activists took the courageous step of
not paying up to 51% of their taxes. They followed these
instructions and sent letters
like these to tell the government why you could no longer pay
for Bush's War. Many spent time in front of their post office
talking to other tax payers about where their money is going and
how much we need it to stay and pay for the needs in our communities.
Thank you to those who made this courageous act.
Pledge to Resist Paying Taxes

a portion of our taxes that pay for the war in Iraq. More...
