Federal Budget Action Needed
04/11/2011

Congress consider's Chairman Paul Ryan’s draconian FY2012 budget plan that makes draconian cuts to health and human services.  Take Action!


 

 

This Friday, just days after Congress passed a Continuing Resolution for Fiscal Year (FY) 2011 that cuts $38 billion, including $13 billion from programs at the Departments of Labor, Education, and Health and Human Services, the U.S. House will vote on its FY2012 budget.  The cuts proposed to Health and Human Services for low-income Americans are stunningly extreme. Join organizations across the country opposing Chairman Paul Ryan’s draconian FY2012 budget plan.

Your voice is urgently needed. Please call your Representative before Friday!

Call: 1-888-245-0215 (toll-free) to reach the Capitol Switchboard.

Message: I strongly urge you to vote NO on the House Budget Committee's Budget Resolution. It would slash SNAP (food stamps), Medicaid, Medicare, education... in fact, ALL the investments that help Americans to be economically secure. It denies vital help for low-income and middle class people while giving trillions of dollars in tax cuts to millionaires and big corporations. Please reject these extreme proposals--they would weaken federal protections in a recession and stall economic growth for us all.

If you can't get through to the Capitol switchboard, click here to find the direct number to your Representative's office (not toll-free).
