On Valentine’s Day—Tell Senators Kerry & Brown:
No More Cuts! Tax the 1%!
End the Wars! Invest in Jobs!
*
*
*
On November 15th, 2011 we delivered 4,500 letters from tenants, peace
groups, labor unions, community organizations, and Boston voters to
Senators Kerry and Brown. TOGETHER we called for both Senators to make
oppose further Budget Cuts in Washington DC. Our demands: Make the wealthy
1% and corporate tax cheats pay their fair share No cuts to Social
Security, Medicare, housing & other vital programs End the wars, bring the
troops home and cut military spending Create jobs and get people back to
work
We have yet to hear from Sen. Kerry. Sen. Brown responded, but still
opposes taxes on the rich. Meanwhile, Congress has ALREADY VOTED to cut 9%
from a wide range of federal programs for the poor and middle class—from
Section 8, education, unemployment, Public Housing, transportation and more!
