FairTax marchers in the Suffolk Parade.
Thanks to Steve, Owen, Jim, Angela, and Sean, we passed out hundreds of cards, white papers. and tri-folds at the Suffolk Parade this past Saturday. Parades are definitely the way to hand out fliers fast. We also got our picture taken with E.W.Jackson, a long time FairTax supporter.

Know of a parade coming up that might let us enter? Let me know.
