THE ACTION: END THE BUSH TAX CUTS FOR THE WEALTHIEST AMERICANS


The election is over and it’s time to make it count. We voted. Now it’s time for action.


Congress has until December 31st to decide whether they will put more money in the pockets of the richest two percent of Americans at the expense of the middle class–or if they will ask the wealthiest to pay their fair share. The Action is a grassroots movement that demands we face this crisis. There is too much money and power in too few hands and the system is rigged to keep it that way. It’s time to level the playing field. It’s time to make things right.


The first step: Congress: Don’t give more tax breaks to the people who need them least.


The Action is for the end of the Bush-era tax breaks for the richest two percent – those making more than $250,000 a year. The Action is for critical investments that create and sustain jobs.
