CONGRESSIONAL REPRESENTATIVE JOHN CULBERSON RECEIVES TAX FIGHTER AWARD
The National Tax Limitation Committee (NTLC) has honored Congressional Representative John Culberson with its 111th Congress “Tax Fighter Award.” NTLC President Lewis K. Uhler presented the award to John Culbersonin Washington, saying “John Culberson’s votes on tax and spending issues in the 111th Congress earned an ‘A’ grade and the Tax Fighter Award.
“John Culberson has led the battle on behalf of taxpayers to stop the passage of ObamaCare and cap-and-trade legislation, to make the 2001 and 2003 tax cuts permanent, to eliminate the death tax, to kill the Alternative Minimum Tax, to provide incentives for private savings, investment and job creation and to control the growth of federal spending.
“John Culberson has been a major asset to taxpayers across America during his congressional service, having earned the Tax fighter Award consistently in every session of Congress. John Culberson has had the courage to challenge the orthodoxy of Washington sp ending and earmarks,” concluded Uhler.
Background information: Since 1975 the National Tax Limitation Committee, a 501(c)(4) grass roots taxpayer activist organization, has worked to limit taxes and spending and to reduce the size and scope of government at all levels. NTLC has led the national movement for constitutional tax and spending limits at the stat and federal levels. NTLC publishes a congressional scorecard at the conclusion of each Congress, as it has for more than a quarter-century.

It’s good to see Culberson being recognized as a tax fighter. This type of award will certainly help him get reelected when the next round of elections take place, and the higher tax environment will be strangling us all.
