In efforts to repeal last year's property tax hike, We need your help!

Last year Metro sued to STOP YOU from voting on the Nashville Taxpayer Protection Act.

In 2020, in a little more than a month, over 27,000+ outraged voters responded with a resounding "NO!" to Mayor Cooper's 34-37% property tax increase by signing, and asking others to sign, the Nashville Taxpayer Protection Act Petition (NTPA). Metro sued to prevent YOU from even being able to vote on the NTPA. The 2021 NTPA will need MORE signa- tures this time to reach a goal of 50,000+ before turning them to the Metro Clerk for counting. From there, we go to the Davidson County Election Commission for placement on the ballot. No doubt, Metro will again sue its citizens but this time we are more prepared for their dishonest tactics.

Together we can STOP this NONSENSE. ROLL BACK the Signed petitions from last year 34%-37% Property Tax Hike! 3434% PrProropope Go to: 4goodgovernment.com peerertrtyty TTaaax InIncrcrcrecreareeaseaaseassee to download the petition, sign and mail back ***** New Deadline is March 25, 2021.*****
