The letter is from the American War Dads of Shidler Chapter #56 in Oklahoma, requesting an amendment to the Federal Income Tax Act of 1944 to exempt men and women in the armed forces from income tax. They believe that these individuals are making significant sacrifices and should not be burdened with income tax when they return home.
