Critical budget negotiations at the White House adjourned the other night with Republican Speaker Boehner refusing to give up even one penny of tax breaks for Big Oil and billionaires.
But when it comes to seniors and middle class families, Republicans are willing to drop the sledgehammer by destroying Medicare and Social Security.
These next hours are critical to organize, mobilize, and expose Republicans' radical plan to sacrifice seniors and the middle class to protect multi-millionaire tax breaks.
Contribute $3 or more right now to our Emergency Rapid Response Fund to help us send a $100,000 message to Speaker Boehner: We will defeat Republicans who try to slash Social Security and Medicare while protecting tax breaks for multi-millionaires.
With our very economy at stake, we must send an overwhelming, unmistakable message that we will hold House Republicans accountable for their reckless priorities.
As we've seen in poll after poll and our upset victory in the New York-26 special election, voters will not stand for deep cuts to the benefits that seniors have earned while multi-millionaires get to keep their special tax breaks.
Your dollars will be put to work immediately to take the fight to Tea Party Republicans in their home districts.
Let's prove we have what it takes -- and show Speaker Boehner that his outrageous demands will cost House Republicans. Chip in right now >>
Thank you,
Steve Israel
DCCC Chairman
P.S. Republicans' loyalty to Big Oil, Grover Norquist, and the Tea Party fringe has pushed Speaker Boehner to risk economic disaster rather than budge on ending taxpayer giveaways for Big Oil and tax breaks for millionaires and billionaires. It's up to us to show Tea Party Republicans that their intransigence has consequences -- please contribute today.
