Last week, activists and allies participated in events across the country – urging Members of Congress to keep the promises they made during the election season – to expire the Bush Tax Cuts for the top 2% and protect the promises of Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid.
Please click here to join us in pledging to DO WHAT IT TAKES to inspire our elected leaders to follow through on their promises to protect our vital programs and expire the Bush Tax Cuts.
The election is behind us but the threat is ahead. In order to avoid budget cuts scheduled for January 1, Members of Congress are working to broker a deal. It must not be a deal that works against the issues we fought for all of this year in the lead-up to the election!
Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid were indeed at the forefront of this year’s debates; Americans spoke out and they chose many candidates who promised to protect these critical programs. Our work is not done, we need to make sure elected officials KEEP THEIR PROMISE to expire Bush Tax Cuts for the top 2% and protect our programs – Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid.
Please join us in pledging to DO WHAT IT TAKES to make sure the promise is kept, our programs are protected and the American peoples’ wishes are honored.


We have come to believe He would like us to keep our heads in the clouds with Him, but that our feet ought to be firmly planted on earth. That is where our fellow travelers are, and that is where our work must be done.
