Below is a sample email that you may copy and paste into an email if you don't know what to say:
Please support passage in both the House and the Senate of H.R. 1207 to Audit the Federal Reserve.
Due to the present-day trillion dollar bailouts, stimulus bills, and resulting federal deficits, we are entering an era when the Federal Reserve's inflation tax will be much more of a burden on most Americans than Congress' income tax.
The creation of money out of thin air by the Federal Reserve to paper over the multi-trillion dollar federal deficits and to prop up its fiat paper money system threatens to destroy the dollar and wipe out the value of our earnings from our jobs, our retirement income, our investments, and our insurance.
Congress created the inflation engine known as the Federal Reserve in 1913. Now Congress must ensure a thorough audit of its creature, the Federal Reserve, by passing H.R. 1207.
We the People deserve to know the truth about the Federal Reserve so that freedom-minded citizens and legislators can gain sufficient support in Congress to restore sound money and phase out the Federal Reserve.
