Dear Friends,
The Congressional “Super Committee” failed to reach an agreement on reducing our national debt because the Republican members won’t let the Bush tax cuts for the wealthiest 1% expire while insisting on making steep cuts to Social Security and Medicare.
That’s why I’ve started a new petition calling on the leading Republican candidates in this race to choose between keeping the Bush tax cuts for the richest 1% or protecting Social Security and Medicare from cuts. This should be a simple choice, but let’s put them on notice.

Dear Friends,

What a disgrace. What Speaker John Boehner and his Republican Congress have done again is to put tax cuts for the rich ahead of the 99% of us and the economy. Unfortunately, my Tea Party Republican opponents in this race are running on the same pro-millionaire agenda to take from our seniors and the middle class to give to the richest 1%.
That’s why I’ve started a new petition calling on the leading Republican candidates in this race to choose between keeping the Bush tax cuts for the richest 1% or protecting Social Security and Medicare from cuts. This should be a simple choice, but let’s put them on notice.

I’ll deliver your petitions to the leading Republican candidates in this race. And I’ll invite the media to come along like when I delivered more than 35,000 petitions to Speaker John Boehner a month ago calling on him to “stand with the 99%” and pass the President’s jobs bill.
Thanks for all you do.
Sincerely,
Eric Griego
Democrat for New Mexico’s 1st Congressional District
