Phoenix Tax Consultants is a woman owned business, located in the heart of Phoenixville, PA., with over 25 years of local tax preparation, tax planning, and audit experience. But we don't just process tax returns - we plan tax returns. That means our customers leave our office with more than just completed tax paperwork, they get tax strategies that help them maximize their financial outcomes. Almost anyone can complete tax forms (after lots of headaches!), but not many tax services take the time and care required to review their clients' expenses and deductions in a way that translates into long term tax savings.   Please contact us, 610.933.3507, marketingmanager@taxtacklers.com

We also do virtual Tax Preparation.  Your refunds are our touchdowns!

Is Hate Speech Free Speech? Nadine Strossen was the first woman to lead the American Civil Liberties Union, from 1991 to 2008. A professor of constitutional law at New York Law School, she is the author of Hate: Why We Should Resist It with Free Speech, Not Censorship. Jeremy Waldron is the author of The Harm in Hate Speech and is a university professor at NYU School of Law.

The speakers will discuss and debate the controversies that arise, on campus and off, over what hate speech is and what can be done about it. These controversies are connected to the still broader core questions,"How should we live together?" and "What should I do?"
Presented by Ursinus College, this event is free and open to the public. Olin Auditorium, 601 E. Main Street, Collegeville. More details, click here.
