Meet the FairTax Hall of Shame --

NEW updates!

This is an election year which, for some, means they'll say anything--truthful or otherwise--to retain their own seat, or bump an incumbent from theirs. And so, a number of FairTax supporters have come under attack from other candidates--or their political surrogates including the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee--with outright lies in print, radio, phone and television ads about the FairTax. Listed below are six who've already made our "Hall of Shame" by lying about the FairTax directly, or had their political guns such as Maria Weeg, Executive Director of the Arizona Democratic Party or Dan Parker who is Chair of the Indiana Democratic Party, do it in their stead.

(Note: This is not a comprehensive list. These are only the candidates whose lies have been reported to us.)
