News Advisory:

The 335,000-member National Taxpayers Union (NTU) is the nation's largest and oldest citizen taxpayer organization. NTU was founded in 1969 to work for lower taxes, less wasteful spending, taxpayer rights, and accountable government at all levels. NTU spokespeople are available to appear on your program as call-in guests, to help you with story ideas and program segments about tax matters, and to provide research or commentary for tax stories you're already working on.

Below are just a few of the topics our experts have researched:

-- Tax Complexity. For years NTU has compiled statistics on tax filing and complexity that show the need for reform.

-- Tax Fairness. Is the Tax Code fair? Do the rich pay their fair share? These and other issues have been examined by NTU experts in Policy Papers and Issue Briefs.

-- Tips for Filing. As millions of Americans race to beat the April 15 filing deadline, NTU's experts are ready to offer advice and publications to help avoid tax headaches.

-- Government Waste. How do your elected officials spend your tax dollars? We have the statistics, studies, and stories you need, including the most comprehensive rating of Congress available.

NTU Spokespeople are available day or night. Call Jerry Terry or Pete Sepp at 703-683-5700, or 301-585-7904. To find out more about NTU, visit http://www.ntu.org/
