Current policies and deadlock in the federal government are killing the middle class, severely impacting seniors, children's services, and the poor, and putting our country in great peril. We are in a crisis. The budget and deficit are out of control. It is time to roll costs back but the Federal Government can't seem to get the job done. The private sector has already undergone drastic cuts in pay and benefits. It is time the federal government did the same. Federal workers are severely overpaid and in the current financial crisis; we can not afford to continue this. We can't wait. Congress has yet to discuss cutting their own pay or the pay of federal employees; but they are glad to continue to create an environment where you and I will pay more and more and more. Sign this petition if you would like to see the USA turn the tide and take a positive step towards fiscal responsibility. Let's cut the pay and benefits for all federal employees for the next three years as follows:
Annual salary Pay Reduction
250,000+ 25%
150-250,000 20%
100-150,000 15%
75-100,000 10%
Let's send a strong message to congress! It's time for change. Sign today and make a difference.
