About Us
Georgians For Fair Taxation (GFFT) was formed in 2009 as a 501(c)4 grassroots, non-partisan, non-profit, educational organization. The purpose of this organization was to unite the fragmented efforts of FairTax supporters across the state of Georgia. GFFT is closely associated with Americans For Fair Taxation (AFFT), our national organization and founder of the FairTax movement, and operates solely to support their efforts to secure passage of HR25/S296, the FairTax bills before congress.

Winning the FairTax War
Often, we lose sight of our objectives or how we intend to achieve them. As FairTax volunteers, our objective is very simple: to secure passage of H.R. 25. The question is: How Do We Accomplish Our Objective?
Lobbying: The Cancer to Freedom
Although the FairTax may sound simple, the effects on our lives will be dramatic and positive. One of the benefits of the FairTax is that it will put us back in control of our government, not our government in control of us!
Opposition to the FairTax
Opposition to the FairTax is bi-partisan in Washington. While most co-sponsors are Republican, those supporting the FairTax represent a minority of Republican Members. Eight years of majority rule by Republicans prior to 2009 did not see the FairTax enacted.
National Sales Tax Still Unpopular
At least this is what a recent
Rasmussen report dated March 30, 2010 wants you to think.
FairTax advocates still have an up-hill battle, and articles like this one only make our work that much harder.
