Hopefully others will weigh in on resisting property taxes, and I will give it thought. My/our focus has generally been federal income tax and federal IRS, though many do resist state taxes. Local property taxes is dealing with yet another entity, and the risks as far as property seizure would presumably be higher than with the feds. Still there are certain resistance tactics and resisting collection issues that probably overlap. Might be worth a meeting locally if we have some resisters where you are. Feel free to email rbenn@nwtrcc.org.

Thanks for the direction on redirection opportunities. The stimulus check has allowed for some to invest resources into tangible concrete needs in our community- like you said to put our money where our mouth is!

We are thinking of organizing a local property tax resistance movement to DEFUND THE POLICE, much like the war tax resistance coordinating committee. Is there any advice you have for us?
