</div><div><b><font size="4"><div style="font-weight:normal;font-size:small"><br></div></font></b></div><div><div>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</div>
<div><br></div><div>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!</div>
