Save Our Restaurants
End the $35 Million Meals Tax

Picture
A majority on the Prince William Board voted for a $35 million tax increase on your meals while voting to give themselves a 70% pay raise!

​You can save our restaurants and thousands of their employees by supporting candidates in this November 7th election who will end the meals tax. Show your support and put an end to this unfair tax. Fill out the form below, and make your voice heard today: 

Restaurants Speak Out:

The State of Virginia has a 6% sales tax on restaurant food, but five Prince William County supervisors added another 4% meals tax on top, which brings the total tax to 10%.   
 
This means food you purchase at restaurants is taxed 10 times higher than food purchased at a store or market.This unfair treatment is killing hundreds of small, popular restaurants and their thousands of employees.
The Supervisors who imposed the Meals Tax refuse to listen.  We can end this madness by voting for the candidates shown below. They will save our restaurants and end the unfair Meals Tax.

Make Your Voice Heard:​

These candidates in the November 7th election for County Supervisor will End The Meals Tax and Save Our Restaurants. Please consider showing your support in their races against opponents who plan to keep the tax.
