If you are somewhere between outraged and sick about all the U.S. tax money that goes to the military and to war, consider joining our public list of war tax resisters and refusers. NWTRCC has updated the War Tax Boycott website for 2012. If you are wondering how to do war tax resistance, some groups offer workshops between now and tax day, April 17, 2012. See the events list or use our contacts list to find someone in your area. If your group is doing an action about military spending and war tax resistance between now and tax day, please email the information to us and we'll post on this website.
