Heads up: Congress is debating a budget plan that would be devastating to Florida. Will you pass this along? Senators Marco Rubio and Bill Nelson need to hear from all of us about it right now, before they cut a deal in the next few days. Please spread the word about all of these proposed cuts to Florida:
It’s especially galling when the same budget protects tax breaks for corporations like GE and the very rich. Just last night the news broke that Congress may be close to striking a deal on the budget. Now is the only time we can influence the outcome. Can you call Sens. Rubio and Nelson and ask them to oppose these cuts in the budget? You can pick one of the cuts in this list to highlight in your call. Senator Marco Rubio Click to report your call. Then pass this email along locally! http://pol.moveon.org/call?tg=FSFL_2.FSFL_1&cp_id=1547&id=26722-9668693-yDXlmhx&t=2 The cuts that the Republicans are proposing would disproportionately hit those who can least afford it in Florida, and it’s up to us to stop them. Thanks for all you do. -Daniel, Amy, Milan, Tate, and the rest of the team Sources: 1.
