What is our position likely to include

Ever since George Bush emphatically declared "Read my lips. No new taxes" in his acceptance speech for the 1988 Republican Party's presidential nomination, tax rates have been at the forefront of political issues. But they are more than just a political football. In fact, tax rates might be the most important issue in determining what life will be like for all Americans in the coming years. That is why Lobby99 intends to advocate tax policies that are supported by facts and that will benefit the overwhelming majority of Americans.

Lobby99 intends to advocate for tax policies that meet the following criteria...

  • The national debt will be reduced each year
  • Impacts on the economy will be accounted for based on factual evidence
