Since our founding in 1969, National Taxpayers Union (NTU) has
proudly served as the “Voice of America’s Taxpayers.” Our
mission: to achieve favorable legislative outcomes using the
most powerful, effective pro-taxpayer lobbying team on Capitol
Hill and in the states.  Let's face it—the Tax Code is a
complicated mess. Our research shows that it takes over 6
billion hours each year for individuals and businesses to comply
with the Code. That saps well over $200 billion from our economy
annually.  We need sweeping tax reform to make this system both
fair and comprehensible for the folks who pay those taxes. And
real reform means not just simplifying the Code, but also
reducing tax burdens on families and job-creating businesses.
At NTU, taxes are just the beginning. After all, the excessive
spending and debt that politicians have racked up in recent
years will have to be paid by future taxpayers. That’s why NTU
is fighting to reduce spending today, so tomorrow’s generations
won’t face higher taxes or lower liv
