Rep. Sandy Adams co-sponsors FairTax bill to abolish IRS

From Kenric Ward's blog on Sunshine State News on Jan. 6:

Here's a big swing for the 24th Congressional District. Rep. Sandy Adams is co-sponsoring HR 25, the FairTax bill.

Adams, who defeated first-term Democrat Suzanne Kosmas in the East-Central Florida district last fall, signed on to the measure that would abolish the IRS while flattening and simplifying the tax code.

“The FairTax isn’t about taxes; it’s about freedom, jobs and less government intrusion," said Adams, a former state representative from Oviedo.

"Florida residents are fed up with business-as-usual in Washington, D.C., and by signing on as a co-sponsor of the FairTax on the first day of session I am sending a message to my constituents that I heard their concerns and will do everything I can to follow through on their strong desire to fix what is wrong with Congress.”
