National Tax Limitation Committee Presents Linder with “Tax Fighter Award”
(1/1/2007)The National Tax Limitation Committee (NTLC) has awarded John Linder with its “Tax Fighter Award," given to Members of Congress whose philosophy reflects support for private property rights, federalism, less government regulation, and a reduced size of the federal government. The National Tax Limitation Committee was organized in 1975 to seek constitutional and other limits on taxes, spending and deficits at the federal, state and local levels of government. In selecting votes, NTLC placed special emphasis on tax, budget and appropriation measures that would have a major impact on long-term taxing and spending programs of the government. Every action considered for this rating was weighed and tallied to present an accurate "fiscal responsibility" score for each Member.
