  2. Reminder: Tax Protest Day

    April 15th is coming up soon -- that time of year when Libertarians across the country protest the Income Tax and the IRS and reach out to taxpayers to let them know _it doesn't have to be this way_.

    
    Visit the LP's Tax Protest Day page at:
    
      http://www.lp.org/lp-tax-day.html
    
    You'll find:
    
      * Information on how to make your tax day protest a success.
      * Reports of past tax protest day activities.
      * How to order "million dollar bill" leaflets or the
        complete tax day kit.
    

    Join an already-planned tax protest -- or set up your own!

    To find out what's already planned in your area, contact your state or local LP organization (see http://www.lp.org/lp-geo.html for contact information).

    Note: To receive tax day materials in time for April 15th, please be sure to place your order _this week_. Materials may be ordered using a credit card online or by phone (202-333-0008).

    END THE INCOME TAX -- VOTE LIBERTARIAN!!!
