To: Kay Hagan, U.S. Senator from North Carolina
Senator Hagan, Hold the Line!
Senator Hagan, we urge you to hold the line by making sure that any fiscal deal reached ends the Bush tax cuts for the top 2% AND protects Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. This is what the country voted for in November, and we expect you, as our representative, to stand up for us and fight for the same things.
Why is this important?
During the presidential campaign, the difference between President Obama and Mitt Romney on dealing with the "fiscal cliff" could not have been clearer, and now that the American people have spoken, it is equally clear whose position they favored. As negotiations proceed in Congress, our representatives should hold the line on letting the Bush tax cuts for the top 2% expire and protecting Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid.
