FOUNDED
About the Associated Taxpayers of Idaho
In 1946, a group of Idahoans formed an independent,
nonpartisan, not -for-profit organization to work on behalf of
Idaho's taxpayers.
Today, the Associated Taxpayers of Idaho remains the only
statewide association encouraging effective and responsible
government through research and public education.
ATI's broad -based membership ranges from individual taxpayers
to large corporations, and we welcome your involvement.
