for Tax Reform believes in a system in which taxes are simpler, flatter, more visible, and lower than they are today.聽 The government’s power to control one’s life derives from its power to tax.聽 We believe that power should be minimized.</p> <p>ATR was founded in 1985 by <a href="https://atr.org/about/grover/">Grover Norquist</a> at the request of President Reagan.</p> <p>Our flagship project is the聽<a href="https://atr.org/about-the-pledge/">Taxpayer Protection Pledge,</a>聽a written promise by legislators and candidates for office that commits them to oppose any effort to increase income taxes on individuals and businesses.聽</p> <p>Today the Taxpayer Protection Pledge is offered to every candidate for state and federal office and to all incumbents. Nearly 1,400 elected officials, from state representative to governor to US Senator, have signed the Pledge. Americans for Tax Reform began promoting the Taxpayer Protection Pledge on the state level in the early 1990s.</p> <p>Additionally, ATR works with state-based center-right groups to help replicate聽ATR鈥檚聽national Wednesday Meeting in the states. Currently, there are over 48 meetings in 40聽states. These meetings bring together a broad cross-section of the center-right community- taxpayer groups,聽social聽conservative groups, business groups, legislators, etc., to promote limited government ideals.</p> <p>ATR is a nonprofit, 501(c)(4) taxpayer advocacy group. <a href="https://atr.org/donate">Contributions to Americans for Tax Reform </a>are not tax deductible.  The Americans for Tax Reform Foundation is a 501c(3) research and educational organization.  All contributions to the Americans for Tax Reform Foundation are tax-deductible to the extent provided for in federal law.</p>
