The 'War Is Making You Poor Act' is a powerful idea. It would eliminate the separate funding for the occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan, and use that money to eliminate federal income taxes for everyone's first $35,000 of income (or $70,000 for couples) each year. And, it would help pay down our national debt.

So far, 7 members of Congress are co-sponsoring the legislation including Ron Paul, Walter Jones, Dennis Kucinich, Lynne Woolsey, Barbara Lee, John Conyers, and Bob Filner. And, over 20,000 people have signed our petition at TheWarIsMakingYouPoor.com.

Let's build the momentum. Contact your member of Congress now and encourage them to support The War is Making You Poor Act.
