Tell Congress to cut federal taxes

Intro Background Media Tools
Tell Congress to cut federal taxes

You can use this campaign to ask Congress to either cut federal taxes in general, to cut a specific tax, or to support a specific tax cut bill. Just add your personal comments to our generic "cut taxes" message to tell your Representative and your two Senators exactly what kind of tax cut you want.


Sending a message is easy. You can write as much or as little as you want. And we start with a brief sentence or two for you. We do this so that . . .

  • The most important point of this campaign is not lost on the Congressional office.
  • No one can hijack our system for a purpose inconsistent with Downsizing DC.
  • But you can still personalize the rest of your message — explain why you were motivated to send this message, or what you believe is the most compelling argument in support of your position.

Are these messages read even with so many folks sending a common first line? You bet they are! Congress cannot afford not to pay attention. And many DC Downsizers get responses from their Congressmen. If you receive a letter, feel free to share it with us at comments@DownsizeDC.org.
