11:30 AM - 6:30 PM |
Each year DC residents pay billions of dollars in federal income taxes but are denied a vote in Congress. Our country was founded on the principle that taxation without representation is tyranny - yet for nearly 600,000 citizens of DC, taxation without representation is a fact of daily life.
Next Tuesday, April 15 - "Taxed Without Representation" Day - join DC Vote staff, volunteers and activists to educate citizens about taxation without representation in the nation’s capital.
We will circulate postcards and a “wooden nickel” to Senate staffers and visitors to Capitol Hill. See below for our "Taxed Without Representation" day schedule. Please join us!
-
11:30 AM – 1:30 PM at Union Station Subway
-
2:30 PM – 4:30 PM at Dirksen Senate Building ( 1st and Constitution, NE)
-
4:30 PM – 6:30 PM at National Capitol Post Office (North Capitol at Mass. Ave, NE)
To volunteer, please contact Nell Schaffer at 202.462.6000 x18 or via e-mail at nschaffer@dcvote.org.
