Americans for Tax Reform (ATR) opposes all tax increases as a matter of principle.
Americans for Tax Reform believes in a system in which taxes are simpler, flatter, more visible, and lower than they are today. The government’s power to control one’s life derives from its power to tax. We believe that power should be minimized.
ATR was founded in 1985 by Grover Norquist at the request of President Reagan.
