Description

Steven Elliott in Michigan and Tina Forte in New York will be facing some pretty well-known opposition in the November election. Elliott will go up against Rashida Tlaib in Michigan's 12th district, while Forte will challenge Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez in NY-14. Both Elliott and Forte have signed the FAIRtax Candidate Pledge. Defeating these powerful Democrat incumbents in deep blue states won't be easy, but with many taxpayers alarmed at the prospect of 87,000 new IRS agents ramping up enforcement, the FAIRtax message of getting rid of the IRS could resonate well with voters. Meet Tina and Steven in this week's Grassroots Corner.
