Stop the Cuts Raise the Rates

"Senator Durbin, we urge you to stand up for us and make sure any fiscal deal ends the Bush tax cuts for the top 2% AND protects Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid benefits from any cuts. This is what we voted for in November, and we expect you, our elected official, to vote the same way."

Why is this important?

Dick Durbin and Senate Democrats have the power to end th Bush taxes cuts for the top 2% while making our safety net stronger than it has ever been. They have the support of the people, polls and more importantly the election have shown this to be the case. Yet they seem willing to give into the demands of the heads of corporations and the richest among us. Tell them we will not stand for this. Sign the petition now, and join us in delivering it on Dec10.
