The Libertarian Party of the Mahoning Valley will host its second annual Tax Day Eve Dinner on Wednesday, April 14, 2004, at the Comfort Inn and Suites in Austintown, Ohio. Libertarians believe the income tax creates more problems than it solves, and is an inefficient source of government revenue.

"We're really looking forward to this event," says John Fockler, Secretary of the LPO and a past Chair of the LPMV. "This is a great chance for Libertarians - and those concerned about the future of liberty in America - to meet, share a meal, and participate in some stimulating conversation."

Vice-Presidential candidate Richard Campagna will be the banquet's guest speaker. Dr. Campagna is a multi-disciplinary professional who has a long and distinguished record in public and community service. He is also an international businessman, a university instructor and a legal/psychological counselor.

A native New Yorker, he has lived in Iowa for 13 years with his wife, Odalys (also an attorney and college instructor) and his son Robert. Campagna is fluent in six languages and is an accomplished legal, literary and medical interpreter. He brings a philosophical approach to political discourse and is a staunch defender of the right to privacy, non-interventionism, personal liberty and economic freedom.

Robert Butler, the new Executive Director of the Libertarian Party of Ohio will discuss the party's Small Business Initiative. "Small businesses in Ohio need tax cuts. We have the best prepared employees in the world, but we can't compete without lower taxes."
