Objective of Iowa Taxpayers AIl'ns for 1938 39
The platform declares no new taxes until current revenues are efficiently used and no new functions until existing ones are coordinated. It seeks to strengthen tax appeals from local budgets, require voter approval for local bond issuance except in emergencies, and provide cost data on local government. It also urges taxpayer organizations to study expenditures and budgets and promote efficiency and economy in government.
