It's tax season again…
But where are
your tax dollars being spent?!
FACT: Almost 50% of our federal budget is dedicated to war.
See the full chart at
warresisters.org/store/where-your-income-tax-money-really-goes-fy2017
US military spending far exceeds the combined spending of other countries. Do our national priorities really need to emphasize military investment over human needs? Where is our peace investment?
Consider sending a "peace tax return"
with your federal taxes this year!
YOU can help turn war taxes into peace dollars…
1. Print out the Peace Tax Return: prcsd.org/pdf's/PeaceTaxReturn1.pdf
2. Follow the instructions
3A. Include it with your federal tax return this year
Tax returns are due Monday, April 18, 2016 -- irs.gov/taxtopics/tc301.html
OR, if you already filed,
3B. Send it separately to your elected representatives.
* NOTE: The Peace Resource Center is a local affiliate of the National War Tax Resistance Coordinating Committee. The Peace Tax Return is part of the "Days of War Tax Action 2016: Invest in People; Divest From the Pentagon" by the National War Tax Resistance Coordinating Committee.
