Many men and women in Congress are supporters of the FairTax.  If you have read any of the letters from members of Congress to their constituents that are posted on this site, you have no doubt seen many that say, "If the FairTax comes to the floor for a vote, I will support it."  That kind of support is certainly necessary to turn the FairTax into law.

The more dramatic support, however, comes from the men and women who agree to add their names to the FairTax bill as cosponsors.  Cosponsors are those members of Congress whose support for a bill is so strong that they officially add their names to the legislation as an endorsement for all to see.  These names send a very clear message both to constituents and the leadership in Congress that a member feels strongly about an issue.

Because cosponsorship is so important for turning the FairTax into law, this page proudly lists the names of those leaders in Congress who have added their public endorsement to the FairTax as cosponsors.  If you see the name of your elected official below, you may want to call them to say thank you.  If you don't see your elected official below, you may want to call them to ask why not.  In any event, it is with great pride that we list below the names of those members of the 109th Congress who have asked to be added as cosponsors to H.R. 25 or S. 25, the FairTax.

FairTax Fact: Did you know, according to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), more than $3.5 billion in taxes is owed by almost half a million Federal employees and retirees? Of the nearly half-million Federal employees, 1,000 work on Capitol Hill. How can we expect Americans throughout the country to decipher our complex tax code when those who are helping to legislate the tax code are themselves confused?
