After the election, Republicans and corporate interests will push a "Grand Bargain." Cuts to Social Security and Medicare. Cuts for the poor. Tax cuts for the rich.
40 members of the Congressional Progressive Caucus are fighting back now! Be a citizen signer of their congressional resolution -- sign on the right.
Be it resolved, any deal on taxes and spending:
- must not cut Medicare, Medicaid, or Social Security benefits;
- must contain serious revenue increases, including closing corporate tax loopholes and increasing individual income tax rates for the top 2%;
- must significantly reduce defense spending to focus our armed forces on combating 21st century risks; and
- must promote economic growth and expand economic opportunity by including strong levels of job-creating federal investments in areas such as infrastructure and education.
Our allies in Congress will use thousands of citizen-signatures to push their colleagues to join the resolution. Please sign in support today.
