Thank You for Speaking Out

Feb 14, 2006

Dear Friend,

Last month, I asked you to write to IRS Commissioner Mark W. Everson to stop the shameful practice of "income profiling" and to release the tax refunds that low-wage workers were due.

Your response was overwhelming. I thank you for taking the time to stand with the people who all too often stand alone.

It is senseless and cruel for the IRS to go after struggling parents while the big-time offenders — wealthy individuals and large corporations — dodge their taxes and get off scot-free. You and I know that being poor is not a crime. We cannot allow President Bush to treat low-income families this way and we must speak out against their actions.

Thank you, once again, for standing up against this immoral practice. It is citizens like you who will keep our government accountable and create a better nation for everyone.

Your friend,

John
