Help Pass President Obama's Budget

President Obama's Fiscal Year 2010 budget provides a visionary blueprint that turns away from the failed economic policies of the past and seeks to invest in our future by expanding opportunities for all. His budget commits major investments in health care reform, education, and clean energy, while restoring fairness to our tax system and reducing military expenditures over time in a responsible manner. As usual, the special interests in Washington are putting the squeeze on Congress to scale back a budget that will help to renew and rebuild our economy.

The Senate is considering President Obama’s budget proposal now. The only way to counter the same special interests that brought us to this brink is for Congress to hear from all of us that the President’s budget is OUR budget. MAKE A CALL TODAY!

Call toll free by dialing 1-866-544-7573 and ask to be connected to one of your Senators' offices. After you reach one of your state's two Senators, use the toll free number again to call the other one.

When you dial the toll free number, you will hear a brief pre-recorded message about the President’s budget, and then you will be connected to the Capitol Switchboard. Ask for your Senator by name, or, if you don’t know the names of the Senators, tell the switchboard operator in which state you are registered to vote and ask to be connected to one of your Senators.

Sample Script:

"Hi, my name’s ____________, and I’m a constituent of Senator __________. I understand that she/he is considering President Obama’s budget this week. I want to support the President’s budget and am opposed to the special interests lined up against it. Does the Senator support President Obama’s budget?"

When you have finished your call, please let us know what response you received - email us at info@wvwvaf.org. Thanks for helping to Rebuild and Renew our country!

Thanks for taking action!

The poll released today covers How to Talk About the Economy with the Rising American Electorate  (RAE).

 

From the report: "RAE voters are an indispensible part of the progressive base in this country.  Political outcomes are driven both by their electoral choices and their relative participation in this Democracy.  The 2010 election cycle saw a significant withdrawal from the Democrats among some members of the RAE, mostly because the economic change they voted for in 2008 was slow in coming and progressive messaging often failed to reflect their economic reality.  Progressives’ success depends in large measure on correcting this mistake in 2012."
