The Unique Opportunity Before Us
To Cut Spending, Reform Our Tax Code and Fix Our Debt Crisis
Now is not the time for half measures.
Congress has a unique opportunity the change the trajectory of uncontrolled government growth and fix our debt and spending crisis.
Our national debt is now greater than $14 trillion. The "Budget Control Act of 2011" was a step in the right direction and a good start. But even if all the proposed cuts are realized, our debt is still on pace to rise to $16 trillion in the next 10 years.
We won't be able to bring our fiscal house in order without reform of our entitlement programs and comprehensive tax reform.
Email your member of Congress now and tell them that these items must be part of our fiscal path forward.
Entitlement spending is out of control. With 10,000 baby boomers set to retire each day in the next 19 years, we must act now to bring about fundamental and structural reforms to these entitlement programs to save them for future generations and to insure a future of fiscal stability.
The other crucial piece of reducing the deficit is comprehensive reform of the tax code. The American tax code is over-complicated, hinders job creation and throws roadblocks in front of our job creators.
