Abolish the death tax and the marriage penalty

George Eichhorn favors abolishing the Death Tax which is counterproductive. The concept of wealth transfer by taxation is contrary to American principals of government and the freedoms of our society.

Taxes should never be a weapon used against Americans. George Eichhorn will work to ensure that the Marriage Tax Penalty, is abolished forever.

George Eichhorn has a record of being fair to the taxpayer. He knows that the money we earn is ours, not the government's.
