Reject Obama's Tax & Spend Vision

Londa, After a historic election, conservatives in Washington have worked hard to change the climate. Spending cuts are the new talking point. Except at the White House: President Obama and his liberal allies view more spending as the solution to every problem. This week, Congress will debate and vote on a bill that funds the government for six weeks starting October 1st. This 'continuing resolution' establishes discretionary spending at the levels found in the Obama-endorsed debt limit deal, higher than the levels in the House-passed budget. >> The House should reject increased spending levels. In Washington, this fight may seem small: an increase of $24 billion against a deficit of trillions. However, it would erase the small victory conservatives have achieved against Washington's spending binge. Now is not the time to embrace President Obama's tax and spend ways. The last thing America needs is more of the same. Thankfully, fifty conservative members of Congress understand the stakes: spending at levels above the House-passed budget would send "a clear message that Washington continues to be tone deaf when it comes to federal spending." >> Take action to encourage the House to reject higher spending levels. Thank you for being with us in this fight. Conservatives must tell Washington to live within its means, like we all do every day. Sincerely, Michael A.
