Tea Party Republicans: Stop holding the country hostage!
From the government shutdown to the debt ceiling, Tea Party Republicans have wreaked enough havoc on our country. Stop holding the country hostage to further your political gains; vote on a clean budget resolution and raise the debt ceiling without demanding cuts to Social Security, Obamacare, or any other vital programs.
Why is this important?
I am in your district. I started this petition to tell you what I feel about Republican extremism. I feel you are a hostage of the Tea Party at best--at worse you are willing to shut down the country to prevent good American citizens from having access to health care.
I am a hard working person. I have spent some of my life without health insurance and it is very scary. You enjoy the best of health care--better than Obamacare, you do not allow your loved ones to face a health crisis without medical care. Yet you shut down our country to deny other good citizens any coverage at all--not for them, not for their spouses and not for their children. That is a sad and shameful action to take.
Quit blocking Obamacare and harming good American families. Put aside partisan politics and do the right thing. Stop the shut down and free Obamacare to help the good people without health insurance.
