Expose members of Congress' positions on taxes for the top 2%
Establish a website to expose each member of Congress' position on the rollback of Bush-era tax cuts for the top 2%, and widely publicize it.
Why is this important?
Polls show that 70% of Americans favor the return to Clinton-era tax rates for the top 2% of earners ($200,000 for individuals, $250,000 for couples). Yet many members of Congress insist that these tax cuts stay in place, while favoring cuts to programs important to the middle class. This petition asks the White House to create an online site for tracking each member of Congress' position on this issue, so it is very clear to constituents where their representatives stand. The site should be widely publicized to the press, on television, and social media. If 70% favors this change, exactly who are these Congresspeople representing?
