- This note is of interest to ALL graduate students across the
- U.S. If you feel that your stipend is an insult as it is without the
- added insult of federal and state taxes taking even more then NOW is
- the time to speak out. There is a bill that is being brought before
- the U.S. House of Representatives about the restoration of the
- TAX-EXEMPT status we as graduate students used to enjoy (prior to the
- Reagan-Bush administrations). This bill would also return paid taxes
- that we have paid from 1986 on. NOW IS THE TIME TO USE YOUR ELECTED
- OFFICIALS AS A TOOL...CALL YOUR LOCAL REP. AND TELL HER/HIM THAT THIS
- BILL MUST BE SUPPORTED AND MUST PASS THE HOUSE!!! Believe it or not
- they might listen. IF YOU DO NOT KNOW WHO YOUR REP. IS CALL THIS # 1
- (800) 347-1997
-
- THE BILL IS H.R. 4418. It was introduced by Tom Lewis (R-FL)
-
- ACT NOW OR THE CHANCE FOR CHANGE *WILL* PASS.
