Overtaxed: Tens of millions of dollars riding on outcome of Scranton tax lawsuit 


On December 16th, 2019, a landmark ruling by Judge Gibbons has now empowered the taxpayers of Scranton. Year after year, the government of Scranton has been  overtaxing its citizens clearly and knowingly. Judged ruled that the city of Scranton owes tax payers $50 MILLION DOLLARS!!

Every homeowner, business owner, and employee of Scranton is ever so burdened by Scranton's ludicrous tax rates which come in many forms. It is on light of this that Gary St. Fleur and his legal counsel, have spent several years in court fighting this battle of the people and for the people.

The purpose of this GoFundMe is to fight the City of Scranton’s appeal of the recent Act 511 ruling which held that the City is illegally overtaxing its residents, businesses, and visitors by at least $10 Million per year. The city of Scranton is stealing  the money of tax payers and using it to continue to steal the money of tax payers- a double offense.

The funds will be used for fees and costs associated with defending the recent decision in St. Fleur, et. al. vs. City of Scranton, et. al. as it makes its way through the Pennsylvania Appellate Courts. We want the Scranton government to obey the law and stop wasting tax payers money through refusing to obey the law. Furthermore, the waste of tax payers money to justify the illegal collection of tax payer money is unconscionable!! The people of Scranton have suffered enough and have given more than can reasonably be expected. Enough is enough!

Make your opposition to the City’s leaders' actions known. Every contribution counts not just in monetary value, but by also showing them your displeasure in their "business as usual" attitude. To share your voice that the status quo that puts the good people of Scranton last is wrong. The buck stops here. As Scranton squanders $100s of thousands of YOUR Taxpayer dollars to fight against its very own taxpayers, it is up to our grass roots campaign to defeat this appeal.

Every dollar and every contribution sends a message. Let's join to preserve our future and protect our families from the Scranton government's illegal acts...
