Dear Friend:
More than half a million Americans living in the District of Columbia paid their federal income taxes this week. In return for paying billions of dollars, they will continue to be denied a vote in Congress. That's taxation without representation, and it's as un-American as it gets! Help end taxation without representation in DC by giving a generous contribution to DC Vote today. More than two centuries ago, American revolutionaries lashed out against "taxation without representation." They demanded a voice and a vote in the legislature that taxed them. The Revolution Is Still Brewing! DC Vote is leading the fight to secure full congressional voting representation for the nearly 600,000 tax-paying residents of Washington, DC. We won't stop until residents of the District secure their fundamental right to vote in Congress. Join the fight today and support DC Vote. Your tax-deductible contributions are vital to sustaining our work. Please donate today through our secure Web site and put your tax rebate toward real, lasting change. Sincerely, Ilir Zherka Executive Director |
