A Spread the Word... Tell A Friend

Millions of your friends and neighbors, waiters, bartenders and small business owners who run your local hotels, bars and restaurants will have their jobs threatened this year as lawmakers propose to increase alcohol taxes. The last time Federal taxes were raised on alcohol, $1.3 billion in wages were lost and 98,000 people found themselves out of work.

Spread the word by telling your family, friends and colleagues about us so they too can join in and make their voices heard.
