Dear Friend,

Welcome! We’re the Co-Executive Directors of Jobs With Justice, and we’re thrilled you’re here. With working families constantly under attack in America, there’s no time to waste in the fight for a fair economy. We hope you’ll review the email below, and take a moment to add your name to this important petition.

-Sarita & Smiley

Friend,

President Trump, Republicans in Congress, and their corporate lobbyist friends are determined to give even more tax breaks to millionaires and wealthy corporations. To pay for it, they want to slash the public services that working people count on to survive, like Medicare and Social Security.

For someone living paycheck-to-paycheck, losing the benefits they’ve earned is a nightmare scenario. It could mean the difference between having enough for groceries and prescription drugs – or going hungry and sick.

At Jobs With Justice, we’re fighting back. Our organizers and campaigns have one mission: taking on the corrupt system designed to keep working families down.

Now, more than ever – we need you to stand with us. Show Congress that we reject the politics of class warfare: add your name to our petition demanding that Congress reject any plan that raids Medicare, Social Security, and other critical programs to give even more money to the 1%!

Tax cuts only help the rich at the expense of others. So, who are they hurting? It’s your neighbor who has to make the terrifying choice between paying the electric bill and paying for life-saving medications. It’s the debt-ridden student who can’t even imagine what retirement looks like. It’s the child who comes home from school to an empty house because their parents are working a second or third shift. This is who suffers, and this is who we’re fighting for.

Tax-cuts for the wealthiest Americans at the expense of everyday American families are a shameful moral injustice that we can’t let happen. That’s why we’re standing up, together, and demanding that any cuts to public services like Medicare and Social Security be immediately rejected.
