Legislation Key Votes
Action Alert
Take Action Bury the death tax for good!

June 5, 2002

Should bureaucrats and politicians in Washington get a large percentage (up to 60%) of your estate with your spouse and children getting what is left? If your answer is no, then you need to urge your U.S. representative to vote yes tomorrow afternoon on H.R. 2143 -- The Permanent Death Tax Repeal Act.

Rep. Dave Weldon (R-FL) a member of The Liberty Caucus sponsored H.R. 2143. Twelve other members of The Liberty Caucus are cosponsors of the bill.

We are optimistic the House will permanently repeal the federal death tax, but we need as many yes votes as possible before the bill is sent to the Senate. Why? Senator Majority Leader Tom Daschle (D-SD) is opposed to permanently repealing the death tax. He wants your surviving spouse and children to have only what is left over from the sticky hands of politicians and bureaucrats.

Urge your representative to vote yes on H.R. 2143 tomorrow afternoon.

Done. Email isn't the best bet, though, so I also called his office. We'll see how he votes. He's been known to misbehave when he thinks no one is looking.

Done. I don't think I have to worry about Pete Sessions too much.
