Newsletter 4-28

Hello all!

The schedule continues to be busy and the money keeps on coming in! As you read this, I am doing a week of Army Reserve duty in Charlotte rewriting a regulation on our training standards. I am often asked, how can you be a Major in the Army Reserve AND run for Congress?

The answer is in my status. Since I am a soldier in the Army Reserve, I can be a federal candidate. If I were in the active or full-time Army, I could NOT be a candidate because of the Hatch act provided for in Federal law.


I disagree with this act concerning full-time soldiers but it is what it is for the time being. Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina still serves as a Colonel in the Air Force Reserve and is the highest profile Reservist in Congress. When it comes to my duty in the Army Reserve, I place it as higher priority than my campaign because of my sense of duty to our country. I will have at least another week of duty before the election in November, but rest assured that while I am away at duty, my great staff and county coordinators are hard at work!

I am very encouraged by the number of fundraising house parties people from all over the district have scheduled in May. There is even a stretch where we have 5 parties in four days! This is key to getting the word out as well as adding to our cash on hand for advertising this fall.

The neediest county in the 7th Congressional District is Robeson County. The Lumbee Indian tribe, which constitutes a major part of the county, thanks too the efforts of Senator Elizabeth Dole, is now closer to receiving $80 Million in federal funding. A disturbing statistic that came out as part of the story on her pending legislation, it came out that Robeson County is the POOREST county in North Carolina. This is particularly disturbing since our sitting Congressman, Mike McIntyre (until election day) has been in office for almost 12 years and this is his home county! He cannot help his own county, much less the rest of the district. You see, what matters is not only how a Congressman votes on an issue, but how he FIGHTS for that issue and and the people involved. McIntyre is content to take all of us for granted because he has felt up until now, his job is safe.

I took my campaign to a Hilliary Clinton function in Fayetteville a few days ago. What I found was that the majority of the Democrats I spoke with LOVE the Fairtax!

A Democrat I met this week sent the following e-mail to my Campaign Web site:

"You have my vote! I will be voting outside of my partyaffiliation for the first time. I am a huge Fair Tax supporter and your position on that issue alone wins my vote. I truly believe that most all of the major problems facing our country can be addressed by implementing the fair tax. I hope we can start a tax revolution, and I know the Congress is the best place to start.

I wish you all the best--Keep the Fair Tax torch burning!!

Thanks for your service to our country!

Amy"

This is just one issue that will attract many Democrat votes to me in this election. McIntyre is running scared of this issue, he is trying to publicize his sponsorship of the "Tax Fairness Act", a bill in Congress that would preserve the IRS and the income tax. He claims that it satisfies the desire for reforming the tax code. But it is clear that if the income tax remains and the IRS stays in place the big spending social engineers will continue to play their games with the tax code. Instead of defending his liberal positions, McIntyre is trying to steal my conservative issues! How Conservative was he being when he voted to place Nancy Pelosi two heartbeats from being President? (Click here to watch a YouTube about this)

I ask for your continued support of our campaign. I am working 80 hours per week bearing your conservative burdens because they matter, especially in this weakened economy, and to keep attention on them in the media. Your generous contribution at aWILLtoWIN.com will help us in this fight!

With Faith,




Will

Letter for Fair Tax supporters

Dear FairTax supporters: The FairTax campaign was very visible April 15th in Washington, D.C. when we delivered, along with the National Taxpayers Union, more than 160,000 FairTax petition signatures to Rep. John Linder and other FairTax co-sponsors.
Ken Hoagland (center) and Duane Parde, President of the National Taxypayers Union, delivering a combined 163,000 signatures to Rep. John Linder (right), lead sponsor of H.R. 25. April 15th also saw Rep. Gresham Barrett of South Carolina become the newest Congressional co-sponsor of the FairTax bringing our total to 71! We are not there yet with a majority but this represents the greatest number of co-sponsors for the FairTax to date--and we're only getting stronger. Thank you. In Washington, we took the FairTax bus to Union Station where we saw even more enthusiasm for the FairTax. The bus was, of course, eye-popping and won waves and honks up throughout the city. We then stopped off halfway to Capitol Hill where we found IRS headquarters surrounded on tax day with 30-40 police cars. "Just a normal precaution," a Metro police captain told us. He was friendly and curious about the issue and after ten minutes of earnest talk he and five other officers asked if they could have FairTax caps. "Sounds really good to us and we wish you luck," he said. "No problem pausing the bus for a few photos," he said, "and good luck on your national campaign; we all need it."
The FairTax bus, flanked by DC Capital Metro police cars, at the IRS headquarters in Washington on Tax Day. It was then on the Rayburn House Office Building where we proudly carried our blown up petition poster and 103,000 FairTax.org petition names bound in four handsome books. We met up the new leader of the National Taxpayers Union who brought 63,000 more petition names to the event. We think it very healthy that other organizations are coming on board as excitement for our worthy cause grows. We presented the petitions, talked with many co-sponsors and snapped photos for hometown releases for the next hour. FairTax House sponsor Rep. John Linder was appreciative and complimentary and continues to push hard inside Congress. The voice of so many citizens strengthens his hand, of course. The petition will now be broken down by Congressional district and sent along to Members of Congress who have not yet come aboard as co-sponsors of H.R. 25 and S. 1025 and will be sent to each of the leading Presidential candidates. Thank you for your support and for your belief that "We, the People," can direct government policy. Together, we are moving the FairTax closer and closer to being enacted into law. This is a citizen campaign determined to make public policy actually serve the public. What's next? We need to take our message to Town Hall meetings hosted by Congressional Members in hometowns across the country. Now that April 15th is past, we will be focusing on getting the word out and asking local leaders to take our case directly to elected officials in your hometowns. Sincerely, Ken HoaglandCommunications Director

Barnstorm for Breazeale and the Fair Tax

Wilmington, NC – On Income Tax Day, April 15^th, local Congressional Candidate and pilot Will Breazeale is highlighting his drive to end the IRS and the Income Tax in favor of the Fair Tax. He will fly to an airport in each of the 10 counties that make up the 7^th Congressional District, culminating is a rally at the Air Wilmington facility at the Wilmington Airport.

The Fair Tax is a plan to abolish the Federal Income Tax on individuals and businesses and replace it with a federal retail sales tax and credits to individuals that effectively eliminate the new tax on the amount spent on basic necessities of life. The plan would reduce drastically the
compliance costs for businesses, bring the underground economy into the tax-paying realm.

Breazeale’s web site, aWILLtoWIN.com features a link to a Fair Tax calculator that allows people to see how they personally would be affected by the change. Will Breazeale and other Fair Tax proponents seek to make April 15^th just another early spring day, not the dreaded tax
deadline it is today.

The schedule of the airport rallies is:

• 8:00 am Elizabethtown Airport (Bladen County)


• 9:00 am Fayetteville Airport (Cumberland County)


• 10:00 am Laurinburg Airport (Scotland County)


• 11:00 am Lumberton Airport (Robeson County)


• 12:00 noon Whiteville Airport (Columbus County)


• 1:00 pm Clinton Airport (Sampson County)


• 3:00 pm Kenansville Airport (Duplin County)


• 4:00 pm Wallace Airport (Pender County)


• 5:00 pm Brunswick County Airport (Brunswick County)


• 6:00 pm Wilmington Airport (New Hanover County)

Benny - Will's iraqi friend and interpreter arrives

When Will was in Iraq, he needed a good interpreter to help in his mission to
thrain the Iraqi army to handle the security in their area of northern Iraq. He
got that and more in Benny - Bangin Al-Dosakee. Turns out he is a computer
guru as well, when their computers had problems, Benny could help. Will also
said his only worry with Benny in the backseat with a loaded AK-47 was about
safe handling of the firearm, not the intentions of the man doing the handling.

FAYETTEVILLE (WTVD) -- He helped American troops fight in the war in Iraq. Now an Iraqi citizen is getting a unique education in American politics.
He's hitting the campaign trail with a local congressional candidate[Will Breazeale].
Bangin Al-Dosakee was greeted with applause and handshakes at the Fayetteville airport Thursday. For the first time in his life, he is experiencing what many sometime take for granted -- freedom.
