Thank President Obama for refusing to negotiate with Republicans on the debt ceiling

Thank you for refusing to negotiate with House Republicans over the debt ceiling. We stand with you, and urge that you stay strong in the weeks ahead.

Why is this important?

"I will not negotiate over whether or not America keeps its word and meets its obligations. I will not negotiate over the full faith and credit of the United States. This country has worked too hard for too long to dig out of a crisis just to see their elected representatives here in Washington purposely cause another crisis." - Pres. Barack Obama, 9/15/13.

House Republicans are aiming to destroy Obamacare and other parts of our already frayed safety net by holding the full faith and credit of the United States hostage. To his great credit, President Obama is refusing to negotiate with them, and is instead demanding an increase in the debt ceiling with no strings attached.

Sign our petition thanking President Obama for refusing to negotiate with Republicans over the full faith and credit of the United States, and urging him to stay strong.
