Please join me in petitioning Congress to revoke all signed pledges effective immediately. Special Interest Groups now RUN congress; not the American people. All independent polls show that the American people feel that taxes should be raised in a balanced approach. We, the American people, need to communicate to Congress that our needs should be considered before those of Special Interest Groups. Failure to act should result in loss of pay and benefits of Congress until action is taken. No retro reinstatement of pay or benefits if action is not taken within 30 days.
