Our esteemed State Senator, Chap Petersen has proposed a crippling new Estate tax, which would raise taxes on everything you try to hand down to future generations. Do NOT let this issue go away quietly! Sign our petition now, and circulate it among your friends and loved ones. A higher estate tax is nothing more than a tax on the American dream. This new tax is going to :

1. Make an inheritance more difficult to maintain and create, meaning higher legal fees for you and your loves ones
2. Tax items that have already been paid for numerous times
3. Cripple the agricultural community. Many family run farms do not have a large cash flow, instead having most of their income invested in land and farming equipment. A higher estate tax will be a death blow to local agriculture.
4. Family run businesses will run into the same problem. Money is tied into providing stable jobs, renting out property, and paying healthcare for employees. A higher estate tax means pillars of our community may have to close for good.
5. Make it more difficult to set up opportunity's to create a better life for future generations. Nobody should be worried about tax rates at a time of sorrow.

I urge you to speak out against Senator Petersen's new estate tax by signing this petition now, and help us clear a path to prosperity for your kids and grandkids.
