National War Tax Resistance Coordinating Committee

National War Tax Resistance Coordinating Committee

The National War Tax Resistance Coordinating Committee (NWTRCC — usually pronounced “new-trick”) is an American activist coalition that promotes tax resistance as a way to protest against and/or disassociate from war and militarism.

NWTRCC was founded on September 18, 1982, by Ed Hedemann and other activists.[1] It filled an organizational gap that had been left since the group National War Tax Resistance dissolved in 1975.
