Subject: Tax Reform Trial Balloons

Comment: Dear President Bush:

The reforms coming out of this committee are tantamount to tax increases not tax reform. 1. Mortgage Int. Deduction=Tax Increase on homeowners. 2.Employer health insurance deduction
reductions= Tax Increase.

There is a strong swell of public anger with the current tax code. The groudswell support for "The Fair Tax" H.R. 25 is real and growing stronger everyday at the grass roots level.

Ignore the "Fair Tax" and you will be ignoring your base. As a member of your base, if you refuse to grow a spine on this tax issue I will only conclude my party is leaving me.
