PEACE TAX FUND ENDORSERS
"War will exist until that distant day when the conscientious
objector enjoys the same reputation and prestige that the warrior does today."
--John F. Kennedy
Group Endorsers of the Religious Freedom Peace Tax Fund Bill
A C O M T and the
Campaign greatly appreciate the support of all of these organizations
and individuals.
If your organization
is not listed here and would be interested in supporting the
Campaign, please
contact A C O M T at
(512) 467-2946 or
peacetax_tx[at]yahoo.com or the
Campaign at (888) PEACE-TAX (732-2382). Thanks!
Also, over 1,000 Central Texans have signed
petitions or written letters for the Peace Tax Fund. They have been delivered to Congress
over the last couple of years, but officials need to hear more voices for peace and the
rights of conscience! Please write Congress including both US senators by
going to the
NEW page.
If you have the free Adobe Acrobat software, you can download a
petition at
which should be mailed to A C O M T once full (see the
contact page).
