Stand behind President Obama's budget

Stand behind President Obama's budget

The Issue

It's time to end special tax breaks for millionaires and billionaires

President Obama just sent his budget plan to Congress. It would ensure that the top 1% pays their fair share. 

As President Obama said in his State of the Union:

"Tax reform should follow the Buffett rule: If you make more than $1 million a year, you should not pay less than 30 percent in taxes... In fact, if you’re earning a million dollars a year, you shouldn’t get special tax subsidies or deductions...

Now, you can call this class warfare all you want. But asking a billionaire to pay at least as much as his secretary in taxes? Most Americans would call that common sense."

Stand behind President Obama's budget and tell Republicans to end special tax breaks for millionaires and billionaires.
