Welcome to Nebraskans Supporting the Fair Tax – the Nebraska arm of Americans For Fair Taxation, the organization promoting the FAIRtax ®! We support AFFT’s efforts to replace the Federal Income Tax with a national consumption sales tax, thereby eliminating the IRS.
At the state level, we promote principles of good taxation — to eliminate confiscatory taxes and replace them with broad-based, flat consumption taxes. By taxing only consumers we recognize what Pres. Calvin Coolidge knew, “in the end [taxes] come out of the people who toil.” Informing fellow Nebraskans and our legislators of this truth will help Nebraska become more economically attractive among our neighboring states.
On 1/23/20, Senator Steve Erdman of Bayard introduced LR 300 CA, the EPIC tax reform bill, which combines Nebraska’s “three legged stool” into one consumption-based tax, eliminating confiscatory taxes on both property and income.
