Campaign Launched to End Sales Tax on Food and Medicine(英文)

1975年2月

此内容暂无简体中文译文,以下为英文原文。

Are you angry at having to pay sales tax on food and medicine? The average Missouri family of four pays over $125.00 a year on taxes on these items. These are survival items that, to a large extent, determine how healthy we are. And though food costs have risen 35 per cent since January, 1973, when a bill to remove these taxes was introduced in the Missouri legislature, no action has been taken by our state government. Well, if our legislature won’t act, the people can, and therefore, a state-wide campaign has begun to get the issue on the November, 1976 ballot. The vote would be to amend Missouri’s Constitution and make it illegal to tax food and prescription medicines. Would you like to put an end to this unfair tax burden? If you’re a registered voter in Missouri, you can become part of the action now. You may sign a petition or pick up a petition and get the signatures of your friends and neighbors. If you agree that we can’t afford to wait any longer, come join us in this action. For petitions or more information, call Judy at 721-5577. If she is out, leave your name and number so she can return your call.
