War Resisters League Tax Day Demo

New York City, April 13, 2005

"Let them march all they want, just so long as they continue to pay their
taxes." — Alexander Haig, U.S. Secretary of State, 1982

Friday, April 15, is Tax Day — the last day for Americans to file their
income taxes or receive an extension. That means Post Offices and Internal
Revenue Service offices all over the country will be working overtime to
make sure that Washington rakes in the dollars it needs to perpetuate its
brutal and destructive occupation of Afghanistan and Iraq and continue to
menace world peace by bringing more Middle Eastern countries under its
thumb.

The NYC War Resisters League says "Enough!" and is bringing its opposition
to Bush's war to the IRS office at 110 West 44th Street, just west of Sixth
Avenue in Manhattan, from noon to 2 p.m. on Friday.WRL members and
supporters will be vigiling and handing out fliers advocating nonpayment of
federal taxes as a protest against the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. The NYC
People's Life Fund will also donate war tax-resisted money to two community
groups.


Money is the lifeblood of the war machine! Refuse to pay and urge other New
Yorkers to say no too!
