Contact: Press Office The National Tax Limitation Committee has honored Congresswoman Foxx with its “Tax Fighter Award” for her work to keep taxes low in the 110th Congress. "Congresswoman Foxx's votes on tax and spending issues earned her an 'A' grade and the Tax Fighter Award,” Foxx has consistently opposed federal tax hikes on families, seniors and employers. She fought to slash government spending, to end the death tax, to fix the Alternative Minimum Tax and to stop tax hikes on retirees’ Social Security payments. “It is an honor to be recognized for my work to keep taxes low for North Carolina’s working families,” Foxx said. “But the work of reining in wasteful spending never ends and I will continue to fight for low taxes and reduced federal government spending.” "Congresswoman Foxx has led the battle on behalf of taxpayers to eliminate the death tax, to eliminate the 1993 tax increase on Social Security earnings, to kill the Alternative Minimum Tax, to provide incentives for private savings, investment and job creation and to control the growth of federal spending. |
said NTLC President Lewis K. Uhler when he announced presentation of the award to Congresswoman Foxx. "Congresswoman Foxx has been a major asset to taxpayers across America. She has the courage to challenge the orthodoxy of Washington spending and earmarks."
