The government’s power to control one’s life derives from its power to tax. ATR was founded in 1985 by Grover Norquist at the request of President Reagan. The flagship project of Americans for Tax Reform is the Taxpayer Protection Pledge, a written promise by legislators and candidates for office that commits them to oppose any effort to increase income taxes on individuals and businesses. Today the Taxpayer Protection Pledge is offered to every candidate for state and federal office and to all incumbents. Nearly 1,400 elected officials, from state representative to governor to U.S. Senator, have signed the Pledge. Additionally, Americans for Tax Reform works with state-based center-right groups to help replicate ATR’s national Wednesday Meeting in the states. Currently, there are more than 48 meetings in 40 states. These meetings bring together a broad cross-section of the center- right community- taxpayer groups, social conservative groups, business groups, legislators, etc., to promote limited government ideals.
