Don't Get Knocked Out by Wireless Taxes

TELL THE POLITICIANS, "Stop hitting us with higher wireless taxes and fees."

We are too! Join us at MyWireless.org® in our fight to stop new taxes on your wireless service.

American consumers now have access to nearly 290 million wireless subscriber connections, and enjoy the value, convenience, freedom, security and mobility of wireless almost every day.

Tell your federal lawmakers you support Cell Tax Fairness, and to cosponsor S. 1192 / H.R. 1521.
