Congress and the IRS are after Your Savings Recently, Congress quietly passed a law that will cost American savers and investors 10 of their interest and dividends. In simple terms, effective July 1st, 1983, this new law requires banks and other financial institu-- , tions to deduct 10 of the interest or dividends you ' earn on your savings and investments. That money then goes to the Internal Revenue Service in much the same way as payroll deductions are now handled. The sponsors of this law have told us jt was designed to catch a small minority of Americans 'who evade taxes on their interest and dividends. But the truth is the law penalizes the great majority of American savers and investors who pay their taxes faithfully. What's more, the federal government is now receiving all the necessary information to curtail tax cheating. Though the law does include exemptions for some low. income and elderly Americans, if they go -- v through the red tape of filing an application, most savers and investors will forfeit some of the. money they could earn in compounded interest. HELP REPEAL A BAD LAW to join our efforts by writing letters to our Utah Congressional Delegation Tell them you want the 10 withholding tax repealed because it would impose an unfair penalty on savers like yourself. Everyone in Utah may contact our Senators by addressing Senator Jake Garn and Senator Orrin Hatch at the "U. S.
