Please Support New Fed Bill concerning artists

New federal bill to allow artists to deduct value of donated artwork

Please take a minute and visit this link to support a federal bill that
would allow Artists to deduct the value of donated artwork instead of 
just the cost of materials.

All you have to do is enter your zip code and it will automatically 
give you a written letter and the correct legislators to email it to. You just 
have to fill in your name, etc.

Americans for the Arts urges the U.S. House and Senate to enact 
legislation that would allow artists to take a tax deduction for the fair market value of works that they create and subsequently donate to arts organizations. Under current law, artists can deduct only the cost of the materials used to create the works, whereas non-artists can deduct the works full value.

Thanks!!

Feel free to forward to as many artists and others as you can.
